Charity 24 hrs Three Peaks challenge
Donation protected
Hello!
We're 3 average Sixth Form boys from Nottingham, who are planning a 4 week expedition to Cambodia to help the locals by: improving infrastucture, help building schools, wells and many other things to help the community. Individually, we need to raise £4000 to actually get to cambodia to allow us to help.
In Cambodia, there are 14.8 million people and 33% of them don't have access to clean drinking water, something we all take for granted. It's a necessity. Furthermore, 67% don't have access to sanitation. Something we all need and shouldn't be a challenge for anyone to be clean, however, the harsh truth is they do. This leaves them open to disease, infection and possible death, these two factors alone, causes statistics such as 51 deaths/1000 live births which are subject to infant mortality.
A way we are tackling the first challenge of getting the funds, is the National 3 Peaks Challenge. Which involves summiting the 3 highest peaks of Scotland, England and Wales (https://www.threepeakschallenge.uk/national-three-peaks-challenge/) in a time frame of 24 hours. With a driving distance of 462 miles. This is obviously not an easy task. That's why we are training 5days a week, going to the gym, biking and running. To make sure we're fit enough to summit these mountains.
Snowdon, in Wales (1085m) Tallest in Wales
Scafell Pike, in England (978m) Tallest in England
Ben Nevis, in Scotland (1345m) 7th of the size of Everest! Tallest in Scotland
Any donations we're more than grateful for. Thank you in advance.
Jakob, Saul, and Hadleigh.
