Global Challenge UK has designed this demanding event,
on behalf of Sight Savers, with the participant's safety in mind. We have many
years experience of running outdoor events. Specialist marshals, personnel and
safety equipment ensures the team's safety at all times. Team briefing sessions
and handbooks offering advice on training, routes, and clothing & diets
etc. will be provided prior to the event. The Challenge will start late
afternoon on Saturday the 24th June and finish at the same time the following
day, the 25th. A complimentary celebratory meal 8.: reception at Snowdon rounds
off The Three Tops Challenge. The event not only ensures a fantastic weekend
for the participating teams but will also provide an excellent
'fundraising-vehicle' for Sight Savers.
The Challenge is for teams to raise a minimum of
£5,000 per team and the proceeds will go to the special '30th Anniversary
Rotary African Vision Appeal' .
