Team 'Pints & Prosecco' do:

What are we doing?Most of our challenge is ‘off-road’ – trekking through parts of Leicestershire that few visit, which makes the challenge even more daunting! The ‘3 Peaks’ in our challenge are Bardon Hill (which at 912ft is just 88ft short of a mountain, so don’t underestimate the leg power needed to reach the top), the famous Old John Tower in Bradgate Park and Beacon Hill (likely named from its use as a site for a signalling beacon, thought to be part of the Elizabethan early warning system for the approach of the Spanish Armada!)Why should you sponsor Team Pints & Prosecco?We are four fairly unfit 40-50 (ish!) year olds wanting to do something which challenges us but makes a tangible difference to others in the process. If nothing else it might be worth a few quid to laugh at the photos we share of us on the day! Where does your pledge go?All of the money you kindly pledge will help to provide essential items for the most vulnerable people in our local communities. And, due to the unique way in which Charity Link works, for every £10 you raise the charity can untap £50 from charitable trusts across the UK – all of which goes to help someone in desperate need. This means that if we raise £100 you will actually be helping to provide £500 worth of items – that’s enough to buy a cooker and fridge for a vulnerable local family – amazing! This year, with the huge increase in need experienced due to the cost-of-living crisis, we need your support more than ever. By sponsoring us you really will be helping to change lives. Thankyou.
