Solo challenge for CRY and FLEET Trust.

About the National Three Peaks Challenge

The National Three Peaks Challenge takes in the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales in 24 hours.

I am a serving police officer for Devon and Cornwall and earlier this year my wife's 19 year old nephew was tragically taken from his family by a sudden cardiac arrest. I'm hoping to raise £2,000 to split between two charities that both train, support families and provide equipment for dealing with cardiac arrests. It's been a few years since I was last up a mountain and through the training I'm carrying out I already know my knees aren't going to thank me for this!! As long as I get to the end and ensure the charities get a good amount to help them then I'll be happy.
