🏞️ Conquering Heights for Compassion: 10 Climbs in 24 Hours for Encompass Charity 🏞️

Hello friends and fellow adventurers,

I'm lacing up my hiking boots and gearing up for an exhilarating challenge — attempting 10 climbs in 24 hours of the majestic Pen Y Fan in Wales. This iconic mountain, standing proudly as the highest peak in South Wales, is not just a stunning natural landmark but also the backdrop to an important mission.

As I embark on this journey, I'm teaming up with Encompass, a local charity that stands at the forefront of aiding families facing the formidable challenges of poverty, homelessness, and addiction. Together, we can make a tangible impact on the lives of those in need.

💪 How Your Donation Will Make a Difference:

🛍️ Food Parcels for Families in Crisis: Your support will help purchase comprehensive food parcels, including toiletries, household items, laundry essentials, fresh food, and even items for babies and pets. No family should go without these basic necessities.

🛒 Weekly Shops for Residents in Need: Your donation contributes to providing a weekly shop for residents in Encompass' homeless accommodation or addiction rehabilitation. This small act empowers individuals on their journey towards recovery.

🛌 A Safe Haven for Rough Sleepers: Funds will be directed towards providing rough sleepers with vital resources such as sleeping bags, toiletries, food, and safety items to navigate the challenges of life on the streets.

💙 Funding a Week in Accommodation: Your generosity can fund a week in Encompass' accommodation for a rough sleeper or sofa surfer, offering a crucial lifeline and a chance for individuals to rebuild their lives.

🌈 Supporting Rehabilitation for a Fresh Start: A portion of your donation helps cover the cost of a week in Encompass' rehabilitation program, including all living costs and professional support around addiction, trauma, and overall well-being.

🌟 Why Pen Y Fan?

Pen Y Fan, standing at 886 meters above sea level, is renowned not only for its breath-taking views of the Brecon Beacons but also for the resilience it demands from those who seek to conquer it....10 times...in 24 hours...This challenge mirrors the resilience needed by the families supported by Encompass, facing their own uphill battles.

Your support is my driving force. Together, let's conquer heights for compassion and make a lasting impact on the lives of those who need it most. Share this page with friends, family, and fellow nature lovers, and let's turn every climb into a step toward positive change.

Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey.

With gratitude,

Chelsea
