Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our 3 Peaks Challenge JustGiving page.

The Peakers are part of the 'Sweet Sixteen' team and the Three Peaks Challenge is an attempt to climb the highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales in 'one go'.

These peaks are Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon. We complete them in that order.

We travel to Fort William on the Friday, starting with Ben Nevis on the Saturday morning, climb Scafell Pike that night and finish Snowdon on Sunday in Wales!

This is a tough event and we need to have achieved the necessary fitness and also be prepared to do without sleep (and wine)! We aim to complete the mountains in a time of 13 hours - Ben Nevis in 5 hours, Scafell Pike in 4 hours and Snowdon in 4 hours, however this will depend upon the speed of the group. The overall trip takes longer than 13 hours as we will need to transfer by road to each mountain along the way.

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 Rossendale Hospice and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now for a wonderful cause.
