Embracing 50!

In the spirit of embracing my 50th birthday, with nothing but appreciation for the life chances I have been given and can give to my own children, I have entered the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge!  I hope to raise a little money towards a cause which aligns with my career values in terms of supporting young people to reach their aspirations whatever their background.

The  Jason Robinson Foundation is a non-profit organisation focused on helping children and young people in some of the most disadvantaged areas of the UK. The number of children in poverty in the UK is over 4 million, meaning many children are missing out on opportunities to better shape their future.  The charity aims to increase the number of children reached through sport & outreach programmes. Funds raised from this challenge will go towards coaching programmes, mentoring and holiday activity camps.

On Saturday 22nd June 2024, I will be walking the Yorkshire Three Peaks of Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough and covering 24 miles in distance.  I have never walked this distance before, but I'm sure the beautiful Yorkshire scenery will help me along.  I will be covering my costs to complete the challenge, so any additional support you can give will go straight to the charity.
