During the weekend of 16-17 September (rather than dancing my way through a close friend's big-birthday celebrations) I will be embarking on the Three Peaks Challenge to raise money for MIND.

I'll be climbing the highest mountains in England, Scotland and Wales (Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon) within 24 grueling hours. Total walking distance is approx. 42 kilometres, the ascent is nearly 10,000 feet and the driving distance from one peak to the next is over 450 miles. All with 0 hours sleep!

13 of my equally adventurous, fabulous Hamptons colleagues will be joining me to raise much needed funds for this wonderful charity. Every £950 raised will enable MIND to answer 100 more calls from those in need, and more than half the charity's income comes from donations and fundraising events such as this.

Please support me, the Hamptons team and this vital charity by sponsoring whatever amount you feel able to.

Thank you, truly, for helping make a difference.
