Three Peaks.

[Gazza]

I know this doesn't happen very often but I'd like to be serious for a moment.

 

On the 22nd May, myself, my son Craig and eight work colleagues are attempting the three peaks challenge, in aid of Great Ormond Street hospital.

You may have seen the story in this weeks Enfield Gazette and Advertiser about the story of my Directors youngest child who was born with a hole in her heart. Our aim is to raise £14,000 to purchase a specific life support machine/ventilator for the baby intensive care unit.

The itinery of the challenge is as follows:-

 

Sunday 21st May 2006, drive to Fort William, Scotland

Monday 22nd May 2006, climb Ben Nevis,

Tuesday 23rd May 2006, drive to Lake District, England

Wednesday 24th May 2006, climb Scaffell Pike,

Thursday 25th May 2006, drive to Snowdon, Wales

Friday 26th May 2006, climb Mount Snowdon.

I use the word climb loosly as it is more of a walk!

 

If anyone would like to sponsor/donate myself and Craig to help us achive our aim please send me a personal message or via this thread.

I will attempt to keep you updated with our progress when and if possible during the week, although not sure of internet connections at these three peaks!!

Any donations pledged will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

 

Gazza.

I'll sponsor you guys for a tenner too. GOS has done one heck of a lot for Little Miss Happy over the years. In fact, it has become almost a second home!!!

 

Good luck with the challenge too.

Thanks guys & those who have sponsored us via PM's really appreciate it.

 

Please keep the sponsorship coming we have set 20th May as our target, the day before we set off.

Last post before we leave in the morning, just like to say thanks to all those who have sponsored myself & Craig its very much appreciated

we have raised just under £1000 & between the team & raffles etc we are at about £12000 which is excellent.

 

See you in about a week.

Where's the proof you managed to climb all three peaks? I heard that you couldn't get from one end of the Brimmo pitch to the other!
