lexicon-partners-logo.gifThe 24 Peaks challenge supported by Lexicon Partners is for those looking for a tough but extremely rewarding challenge. You will summit 24 mountains in 24 hours - this includes 8 of the 10 highest mountains in England. This challenge will test your physical ability, stamina and team spirit.

You will climb 10 mountains the first day (this includes Scafell Pike, the highest mountain in England) and the remaining 14 the next day.  Along the way you will view some of the most stunning landscapes in the Lake District. Afterwards, celebrate your success with a fantastic post-event meal, prize giving and celebrations.

Your funds will support CARE’s vital work in over 70 countries around the world helping over 59 million people a year find routes out of poverty.

The money raised could support microfinance projects around the world. For example, your £6000 could fund more than 12 saving and loans groups in Uganda; it could help empower villagers by funding all training, equipment and support to enable them to form a savings and loans committee and start making small loans to fund local business activities.

CARE challenge are an in-house charity fundraising team. We offer many exciting charity events that you can join. All our charity challenges offer amazing adventures outdoors and lots of our activities take place over adventure weekends. If charity runs are your thing, then we have lots to offer - 10K runs, half marathons and many other running events. Or, how about cycling events for charity? We certainly have lots to offer in the charity cycling department. There are charity rides where you can cycle London to Brighton or you can even do a charity bike ride from London to Paris, if London to Brighton isn't far enough! We also have some charity walks and hikes. Later this year we have a sponsored walk that is 25 miles long in order to celebrate the 25th anniversary of CARE International's UK office. If activities outdoors and adventure weekends get your adrenalin pumping, then why not sign up for one of our mountain challenges? We have numerous charity challenges on mountains over the year from three peaks challenges to 24 peaks challenges - if you think you're up to it!
