MF Hydraulics Ltd 3 Peaks Challenge June 2012

On Friday 18th November 2011 i received an email from one of the company directors asking for volunteers to do The 3 Peaks challenge, straight away i thought this sounds a great idea for me to have a go at. My reply was instant to add me as part of the team.
So far the team consists of myself, Michael whitty, Dean Penn, Ian Maisey & Mike Ford (Director & Owner). we are waiting for one more member to join our band of brothers on this epic & challenging adventure.
The challenge is on for teams of 4-6 to summit the highest mountains in England, Scotland and Wales in the ultimate team challenge. Action Medical Research's 3 Peaks Challenge has an extra special challenge built-in as teams must take charity mascot Paddington Bear to the summit of each mountain.


The challenge starts at the foot of Ben Nevis in the spectacular setting of the Scottish Highlands. After summiting Ben Nevis teams head for the Lake District to climb Scafell Pike before driving to North Wales to tackle the last of the 3 peaks Snowdon. The challenge finishes with a well-deserved full Welsh breakfast at the foot of Snowdon!
Many teams will aim to complete the challenge in 24 hours or less, others will take closer to 30 hours.
All funds raised by the challenge will support the work of Action Medical Research and will make a huge difference to the research the charity is able to fund offering hope to the many thousands of families across the UK who are dealing with the trauma of a baby born too early, striving to support a child affected by disability, or facing the challenge of caring for a child with a rare and devastating disease for which there is no cure.
