Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I will be tackling the three peaks challenge! It comprises of climbing the three tallest Mountains in the UK, Ben Nevis in Scotland, Scafell Pike in the Lakes and Snowdon in Wales all within 24 hours start to finish.

The total walking distance is 23 miles (37km) and the total ascent is 3064 metres (10,052ft).The total driving distance is 462 miles. All while trying to raise some money for a fantastic local charity Broadlands RDA which provides riding and pony therapy for disabled riders.

Broadlands is a charity close to my heart, Stanley (my step son) has been visiting for sometime and the sheer enjoyment and self development he has made is just a joy to see.

Being in the presence of a pony that is calm and relaxed helps children disconnect from upsetting thoughts, emotions and other stresses that disrupt our inner peace, opening children up to being in a state of mind and body that enables self‑awareness and positive new learning.

Interaction with the pony can increase self-awareness; the pony will respond to their body language, breathing, heart rate and emotional energy. This kind of ‘mirroring’ behaviour can provide the children with a strong visual cue to help develop awareness of their own emotional energy and body language.

Please help and support this amazing charity so they can continue to offer therapy to Stanley and the many other children that attend and gain so much from Broadlands.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
