Sadie's Ben Nevis climb



Hello! Thanks for visiting my page, and no this isn't a hoax - I will be climbing Ben Nevis (the highest mountain in the UK) on September 30th for a cause close to my heart, the NSPCC.

I've set the initial target to raise £290, a tenner for every week that the NSPCC have been there, offering virtual therapeutic sessions for children during the lockdown period and beyond. Children are experiencing the loss and anxiety related to the pandemic, just as we grown ups are. But many of these children on top of covid19 worries are also dealing with separation from their birth families, moving foster homes, historical trauma related to abuse, isolation and feeling disconnected from their usual comforts and trusted adults. I'm incredibly proud to work for an organisation who continue to be there for every child, and I'm even more proud of every child I have worked with throughout this period who have shown inspiring resilience and bravery. 


Those who know me, know that myself and exercise have a very complicated relationship. I've started and stopped the couch to 5k programme more times than I would like to admit. I've joined and quit the gym. My super supportive boyfriend bribes me with ice cream to keep up with the walking pace, you get the picture..

Its going to be a slog! It won’t be pretty, I really hate hills. But I will do it, and the more donations I receive the higher the boost in motivation to get me to the top! 

Please help me climb a mountain for the wonderful kiddos I work with, every donation makes a difference ..

That's what drives all our work, and that's why - as long as there's abuse - we will fight for every childhood. NSPCC, registered charity numbers 216401 and SC037717.
