Degsy and Jade conquer the Snowden Triple Challenge (We hope!!🫣)
We are raising money for Rethink Mental illness.
Rethink Mental Illness are leading the way to a better quality of life for anyone severely affected by mental illness.
Degsy's personal story:
"I lost my brother, Kev, to mental illness so this cause is something that is very close to my heart. I think a lot of the stigma surrounding mental health still causes a lot of people not to talk about what they are going through. If just one person is helped by this effort then it will have been totally worthwhile."
We are taking part in the Swowden Triple Challenge.
We have chosen to complete this challenge because this will be both physically and mentally challenging for both of us!
This physical and mental challenge will get our blood pumping and will give us an opportunity to raise money to change the lives of people living with mental illness.
We will conquer this 24.5-mile route in the epic Snowdonian landscape in just one day! We will Bike it, Hike it and Paddle it.
Tackling all terrains as we cycle, trek and kayak in the wildness of Wales,
Conquer the summit of Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa), the highest peak in England & Wales at 1,085m.
We will:
Bike – approx 10 miles (220m ascent & 180m descent)
Trek – approx 9 miles (945m ascent & 1060m descent)
Kayak – approx 2.5 miles
Our combined fundraising target is £720!
Every donation counts!
Thank you so much for your support 😊
