Story

Each year I mark my dad's anniversary and celebrate his birthday (both in March) by fundraising for Braemar Mountain Rescue. Not being able to take part in any organised events or climb any hills this year means coming up with something else... so every day for the month of March, Callie is going to climb all the stairs in our close (which will be enough of a challenge for her little legs).

Anyone who knows me already knows how I feel about the volunteers of BMR team and why fundraising for them is so close to my heart. This year I've chosen to also (hopefully) raise some money for the Chris Lewis Fund. Chris Lewis an experienced member of Patterdale Mount Rescue, who tragically suffered severe, life-changing injuries while selflessly helping on a rescue operation.

Having set a joint target of £50, I would absolutely love if both Braemar Mountain Rescue and the Chris Lewis Fund could benefit from Callie's wee climb. I hope it's something she can be proud of when she's older, supporting these hugely deserving causes in memory of her grandpa Jim. Thank you for taking the time to read our story x
