Three Peaks training ramps up

A TEAM from the Barony campus will be tackling the Three Peaks challenge later this month.

The group of 22 staff members are training hard for the endurance event.

On May 22 they will attempt to climb Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon — the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales — all within 24 hours.

They are taking on the challenge to support colleague Lucy Thornton in reaching her fundraising target ahead of her 100km, five day trek in the mountains of Montenegro later this year, spreading awareness of Coppafeel! breast cancer awareness charity.

A Justgiving page has been set up and £4272 has already been raised.
