Three Peaks for Three Superheroes

Welcome!

 

We are Harry B, Adam G, Adam W, Tyler R, Jack N, Isy N and Harrison W: a group from Gloucestershire attempting the National Three Peaks Challenge to raise funds for three little superheroes from our local church. I'll let their parents introduce them to you:

 

The Three Superheroes

 

Jenson 

Jenson was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy on his first birthday. This was a complete shock as we became aware of a condition we had never heard of before. It is a life limiting, degenerative muscle wasting condition. With no current cure he will lose the ability to walk, hug and will require ventilation and drugs to stabilise his heart. Monies raised will be a huge blessing to making memories for Jenson and his siblings while Jenson is mobile. Thank you so much.

Joshua
Joshua was born beautifully healthy on his due date and hit all his milestones, walking on his 1st birthday, learning to write his name and ride his bike. At 4 years old he started to lose his sight. 3 years later following years of investigations and living in limbo we received the devastating diagnosis of terminal cln6 Batten disease, a form of childhood dementia which has robbed him off all these skills and also taken his speech and mobility. His life is a battle every day. We don't know how many years we will have with our beautiful boy but however short we are determined to make the most of them as a family. The money raised will go towards specialist equipment that he will need as his care needs progress as the disease worsens. Thank you for your support.

 

Mighty Malachi 

At 6 weeks old Malachi had a chest infection which led to sepsis and as a result suffered a brain injury where not enough blood and oxygen reached his brain. He was very ill, stopped breathing several times and the prognosis was very grim.Fast forward 8 years and Malachi is a right live wire with a cheeky sense of humour and an adventurous spirit.The brain injury has left Malachi with various conditions including Epilepsy, Cerebral Palsy and severe Sight Impairment meaning he is registered blind. He has a tummy tube for meds and liquids as he cannot take them orally. He uses a wheelchair full-time and needs 24 hour care as he can’t do anything on his own. Malachi lives a full and exciting life he is active and loves soft play, swimming and sports. The funds raised by this challenge will enable Malachi to have specialist one on one swimming lessons for children with cerebral palsy with a specialist instructor.  We are so thankful to the guys for supporting Malachi in this challenge! https://www.facebook.com/MightyMalachi/?ref=page_internal 

 

Our Challenge

 

On the 17th-18th June, we are going to attempt to climb Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon all in under 24 hours.

 

We would be so grateful if you would consider sponsoring us and donating to these amazing little guys and their families, the money we raise is going to have an enormous impact on the quality of their lives.

 

Thank you
