David’s story
We are a team of Leaving Care Personal Advisors and managers who are raising money for Care Leavers throughout Leicestershire.
We aim to raise £5,000 for our 18-25yr old care leavers to help them reach their full potential, these are young people that have been in the care of the local authority and are now making their way into adulthood with the support of their personal advisors.
We are doing the 3 Peak Challenge on the 30th and 31st of May. This is hiking the 3 highest mountains in the UK in a 24 hour period Ben Nevis in Scotland, Scafell Pike in England and Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) in Wales.
We have chosen the 3 Peaks Challenge as a personal goal for each and every one of us, there's Liam a mighty leader who drives us forward and is in charge of navigation, there's Dani quiet but determined and an amazing manager, there's Jit doing it for the over 50's and our media consultant, there's Nutan our mindfulness coach and the pace setter. We have Whitney, our ray of sunshine and a laugh that’s infectious who’s leading on organising and engaging with our senior leadership, there's Harriet, our voice of reason when we are stuck and fashion advisor and then there is me, this time last year I was in hospital with 26 blood clots on my heart and lungs and now I am able to achieve my goals.
All the money raised will be used directly with our young people.
