Raising money for Sturge Weber UK

A group of dads who have children affected with Sturge Weber Syndrome have decided they would like to do the Welsh 3000 challenge on our behalf to raise money, awareness of the condition and promote men’s mental health.

Story

We are a group of Dad's who have all met due to each having a child affected with Sturge Weber Syndrome. Their aim is to undertake the Welsh 3000 challenge to raise money for Sturge Weber UK, awareness of the condition and promote men's mental health.

Sturge Weber Syndrome is a rare neurological condition which affects approximately 1 in every 20,000 to 50,000 individuals. The most common issues associated with Sturge Weber Syndrome are a port wine, glaucoma, epilepsy and autism.

This challenge is not for the faint hearted. In order to complete the Welsh 3000's challenge they will be required to have been at the top of all 15 of the mountains over 3000 feet in Wales within the space of 24 hours without using any form of transport. The length is about 24 miles but the walks to the start out and down from the finish point take it to over 30 miles in total.
