The University of Glasgow Security Team will be taking part in the National 3 Peak Challenge on the 23rd/24th of August 2024. The challenge is to complete the highest mountain in each of the 3 UK mainland countries, Ben Nevis 1,345m (SCO) Scafell Pike 978m (ENG) and Mount Snowden 1,085m (WAL) in a 24hr period. In total we will cover 23 miles (43km) with an ascent of 3064 meters (10,052ft) on foot all while driving a total distance of 462 miles between each start/finish point.

As we all live and work in Glasgow and the surrounding areas, we see first-hand the work Homeless Project Scotland do across the community and feel this challenge would be an excellent opportunity to fundraise for a worthwhile cause.

Participants are Charlie Bell, Shaun Scott, David McLeneghan, Robert Graham and Juan Figueira De Abreu with assistance from Conall Rodgers and Matthew McFadzean
