Here’s what Gareth Watts, our Charity Committee lead at Carnival House, had to say…
“Firstly, huge congratulations to everybody for completing this incredible challenge. When I look back at the photos, I think crikey, did we really climb that? And that’s without the bike ride or kayaking!
I don’t think we could have picked a better day, and the beauty of Snowdon and the surrounding area was absolutely stunning – a truly memorable experience.
What made the experience even more enriching was sharing it with everyone. Every single person was great company and I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to do the challenge with – I can’t remember laughing that much in a long time.
Through the blood sweat and tears, I can look back now and say that I can’t remember being so proud of a group of individuals as I was this weekend. Their will-power, strength of character and sheer tenacity to complete the challenge was truly inspiring and has raised an unbelievable £21,509 for BCH – such an incredible achievement, it’s really overwhelming.”
