Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. We have entered a team of 8 to take on the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge on the 21st September and our chosen charities are two charities that are both very close to our hearts here at Opus Safety.
We will be starting and ending in Horton-in-Ribblesdale and take on 3 of the best known peaks in Yorkshire; Pen-y-Ghent (694m), Whernside (736m) and Ingleborough (723m). The aim of the challenge is to walk this 24 mile route within 12 hours with a total accent climbed of 4531ft!
We will keep this page active with lots of updates of our team training days ahead of the event and also during whilst we take on each peak to help raise money for the these two amazing charities.
We have given you the option to chose which charity you would like to donate to and have provided a little overview of each charity below for those that may not have heard of either charity.
We would like to thank everyone in advance for any donations made as a little really does go a long way for each charity, and we thank you all for your supporting.
Now lets get our walking boots on and raise some money for both charities.
