Battling Mountains, Rain and Winds of 90mph for Joshua

The weekend before last our crazy Three Peaks team of Andy, Toby, Jess, Joey, Jake, Tom, Chris, Ben and not forgetting the incredible driving Dave, took on the Three Peaks Challenge for Joshua, and boy what a challenge did they face!

Starting out at 6.30am on the Sunday morning they managed to tackle Ben Nevis with a full belly and pretty good weather all things considered. But despite this fabulous start, the British weather began to turn and when they reached the top of Scafell Pike the wind was starting to batter them here there and everywhere.

Determined to continue no matter what they arrived at Snowdon in Wales after hours of driving through the rain and wind they waited two hours before they officially had to abandon the last summit due to 90mph winds, landslides and torrential rain.


We were glad to have them all safely back on terra firma and having had a week to recover we are delighted to share with you the news that the team have raised an incredible £1,602 to help get Mac, Joshua's trustee 4x4 back on track!

A huge thank you to the team, everyone who supported them and everyone who donated to support their crazy challenge - you are Joshua legends!
