3 PEAKS CHALLENGE ...

What are we doing?
We are organising the Three Peaks Challenge to raise funds to support our work in Uganda.

How can I be a part?
That's easy, we are looking for groups or individuals of lively mountain lovers to scale Ben Nevis in Scotland, Scafell Pike in England and Snowdon in Wales within 24 hours! Sounds tricky eh? Well in fact, after climbing 3000 meters in 24 hours without much sleep, you'll be able to stare your friends in the eyes and proudly say, "its not"! It is a fantastic opportunity to visit these beautiful mountains and have a lot of fun whilst supporting a great cause.

Code of Conduct [MS word] [.pdf]

You can sign up as a team (max 5 climbers and 2 drivers for a self-drive) or as individuals (we will consult with you to allocate you to a team of similar capability).

What next?
Once we have received your registration form, we will send you a sponsorship form and information pack which tells you all you need to know about the event. We will also arrange your accommodation and provide food for the event, leaving you to concentrate on training and fundraising.

What about fundraising?
We ask that you raise a minimum of £350 when you take part in the Challenge. This is why a £150 refundable deposit is required to enter. This will ensure we cover the costs of your place and is fully refundable when we receive your sponsorship.

Once you have registered we will help you with fundraising by giving you access to the 3 peaks online fundraising page. Then you can collect sponsorship online AND in person.
