Climbing Mount Snowdon

Hi I'm Vicki - my husband is the patron of Ignite Foundation. He has been working toward building a gym on Church Street, Edmonton. That will offer the young people (aged 5 to 18 years) living in Edmonton free membership to the gym and boxing sessions.

The project is underway for renovation works to start, this will be a self-sufficient charity organisation. But to get to that point it will take the support of the village to get this gym built!

This summer on the 17th of August I have decided to climb Mount Snowdon. At 1085m high it’s a tough climb to reach the summit, but from the top, you're rewarded with it's tremendous views of Eryri National Park (Snowdonia). Snowdon is the tallest mountain in Wales and takes, on average, 7 hours to walk up and down it's steep slopes. I’m really excited to do it.

I see this as an opportunity to share the aims of the project, rally support and donations!

Ignite Foundation want to provide a safe haven for young people living in Edmonton, away from the gang groomers, provide the resources to support their health and wellbeing. Boxing teaches you discipline, comradeship and respect for yourself and others.

We are a new charity and awaiting access to a charity bank account in the meantime HB Accountants will hold donations paid via Paypal and Go Fund Me.
