Picture this: scaling the highest peaks of Scotland and Wales within a mere 24 hours. Yes, that is right – just 24 hours in one day to conquer Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike, and Mount Snowdon and it’s all to help people who have lived with Domestic Abuse, whether it is current or historic.
#24HourChallenge #TheDevonClinic #24for24 #SupportOurCause
The Devon Clinic is a local charity that ensures all our work is for the benefit of the local community, and any funds we receive are reinvested into the services provided by our Clinic to support people with their mental health and well-being. Our aim is to be able to provide accessible, affordable, compassionate and evidence-based care to everyone in our local community.
The people undertaking this adventure leave Torbay on Wednesday, July 10th, as they journey to Fort William, Scotland, gearing up for the challenge’s start at 6 am on Thursday, July 11th. First up, Ben Nevis! After conquering Scotland’s peak, they will be whisked away to Cumbria for Scafell Pike, and then off to tackle Mount Snowdon, all within the 24for24 timeline. The clock ticks as they push their limits, aiming to have reached the summit and got back down Mount Snowdon by 6 am on Friday, July 12th.
But their journey does not end there – back to Devon they go, to the Mason Arms in Torquay, for a well-deserved celebration with a quiz and live music.
It is a feat that seems daunting, but with your support, they can do it! Every donation counts, supporting every step they take can help so many people in our local community. Let us rally together, share their journey, and make a difference. Join us in cheering them on, every step of the way!
