Adventures on mountains, from walking to climbing, have always been a self fulfilling pursuit for me and I have been lucky to have had amazing people around me to learn from and guide me along the way! I have found that being in the outdoors allows me to reset and recover from a long or difficult week, and the impact being in this community has had on my mental health has been significant.

That is why I have decided to participate in raising money in support of Blackdog Outdoors. The plan is to summit Yr Wyddfa for the sunrise on the 2nd of August, and all donations will go towards supporting Blackdog Outdoors to continue delivering the amazing, free to attend events to raise awareness of the benefits of the outdoors for mental health!

Our goal is to raise £150 per participant, but I'm hoping to go above and beyond supporting this amazing charity, so any donation will help make an impact!
