British Three Peaks Challenge
- 28th June to 1st July 2013

In September 2012 a group of 9 supporters took on the British 3 Peaks challenge & between them they raised an incredible £3300. With this in mind, in June 2013 Lets Do It Anyway will be taking another group of supporters to complete the highest British three peaks, a famous & rewarding mountain challenge in the UK, to raise funds for beautiful 5 year old Oliver to fund a wheelchair & specialist equipment. Our target for Oliver is £2000, anything raised above that will go towards another amazing cause we are currently helping which is 'The Green Canaries' Wheelchair Basketball Club.

The challenge:
To climb & summit the three highest mountains in the UK, which are Ben Nevis (in Scotland), Scafell Pike (in England) & Snowdon (in Wales). That’s 10,000 feet of climbing, which is approximately 25 miles. A great charity group challenge & a fantastic achievement, never to be forgotten!

To complete “Your” once in a life time challenge within 24 hours!

During this challenge, to allow you to focus on the event in hand, everything will be taken care of for you, including warm food & drink.

Challenge Kilimanjaro

7 Days on a Mountain

Standing at 19344 ft, that’s 5896 metres above sea level, Mount Kilimanjaro, the "Mountain of Greatness", is the tallest freestanding mountain in the world and is the highest peak in Africa.  Climbing Kilimanjaro is a demanding, challenging feat and is a magnet for trekkers and climbers the world over. 

In February 2013 Lets Do It Anyway Funding^TM will be taking a group of supporters to climb Kilimanjaro via the stunning Lemosho Route, and we have teamed up with Action Challenge, the international event organisers who have a wealth of experience of getting groups safely to the summit - Uhuru Peak at 5895m.  The Lemosho Route takes in some of the best features of the Kilimanjaro National Park and was chosen for the celebrity Comic Relief climb  in 2010.

The Lemosho Route has only recently opened up to trekkers wishing to tackle Kilimanjaro from the western Lemosho glades. Following in the footsteps of the celebrity Comic Relief trekkers the route starts in the pristine rainforest before crossing the vast Shira plateau, and merging into the Machame Route. However this itinerary includes a shorter days trek prior to the summit day which ensures you more rest, and allows for more time to acclimatise– giving you the best chance of making it to the top!

If you would like to take part in the amazing Challenge Kili Trek 2013, for Lets Do It Anyway^TM, or for further details please e-mail us via the contact form
