Walkers and runners are invited to take on the Wiltshire 3 Peaks Challenge to raise vital funds for vulnerable young people.
The Youth Adventure Trust says it is thrilled to announce the return of the Wiltshire 3 Peaks Challenge, sponsored by Beard Construction.
Taking place on Saturday 21 June, this unique challenge invites participants to walk, run or jog Wiltshire’s most iconic hills - all while raising vital funds to help local vulnerable young people build resilience, confidence and hope for the future. Participants can run, walk or jog 10km or a Half Marathon.
Last year’s Wiltshire 3 Peaks Challenge saw 155 people lace up their boots and take on the hills, raising £15,723 in support of vulnerable young people - enough to fund 12 young people through a whole year on the Youth Adventure Programme.
This year's adventure will see participants conquering the three iconic peaks of Wiltshire - Martinsell Hill, Milk Hill and Walkers Hill.
Youth Adventure Trust Chief Executive Mark Davey said: “The Wiltshire 3 Peaks Challenge is a brilliant way for people to come together, enjoy the outdoors, and directly support local young people who are facing real challenges in their lives.
