Mastering the 3 Peaks for Cancer Research

The National Three Peaks Challenge involves climbing the three highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales and, having previously reached the summits of Scafell Pike and Snowdon, Prep brothers Oliver and Nikolas took on the final challenge of Ben Nevis to raise vital funds for Cancer Research UK.

Standing at 1,345m and with a greater vertical ascent to the summit than the other peaks, Ben Nevis is by far the highest and most challenging ascent of the three peaks of Great Britain. Yet, over the course of 15 hours, the family completed their climb and have now raised over £1,500 for the charity.

What an incredible thing to do.

As a student, you are the most amazing discovery you will ever make.
