On the 19th May 2018 Disability Direct staff and a team of willing volunteers will be attempting to complete the Derbyshire 3 Peaks challenge to raise funds to allow us to continue to make positive changes to the lives of disabled people and their families.
The route is 23 miles over Bleaklow, Black Hill and Kinder Scout with a total ascent over the whole day of 1040m. The trek covers some pretty challenging terrain but also takes in some breath taking views which will hopefully make people forget about the aching legs and sore feet. The trek will be led by a qualified mountain ranger and will also include 2 nights stay in the peak district.
Registration fee & Sponsorship
We have endeavoured to keep all costs to a minimum whilst providing you with an amazing adventure. There is a £80.00 registration fee for this event but this does include the following: .
- Qualified mountain leader
- Transport between Edale and the start of the course
- Food at the base of the first 2 peaks
- Celebratory bubbly at the end of the challenge (or whatever you prefer)
- Two nights accommodation with food
- Fundraising advice and materials
We do ask that you raise £400.00 as a minimum in sponsorship funding; we will support you in setting up an online sponsorship page with mydonate.bt.com as well as providing you with paper sponsorship forms. Please remember to ask all sponsors to ensure that they sign up for Giftaid, it will cost them nothing but will boost your fundraising efforts by a massive 25%! We have chosen mydonate.bt.com as our charity gets the whole contribution with no fees.
