We are fighting to make a world where diabetes does no harm

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We at Core Telecom have decided to raise some money for Diabetes UK who help and support all diabetics both young and old.

We are not experienced climbers nor are we at our peak physical fitness, most of us dread the walk to the shops and argue about who has to leave the comforts of the warm office and it’s for this reason that we (for some reason?) choose to walk/scramble/climb Tryfan in Snowdonia, Wales.

I quote…

“The main part of the route is on solid rock with good handholds, although the rock can be polished and slippery in the wet. There are some parts which use paths which can be muddy and slipperly. This is not a route for the inexperienced, or those without a head for heights. This is a scramble, which requires confidence when crossing very exposed sections with huge drops. In winter conditions this is a mountaineering route”

I plan to jump Adam and Eve, two rectangular rocks about 12 feet high at the top of Tryfan. They stand approximately 6 feet apart with a 12ft drop on one side and a 300ft drop on the other – should be fun!

Please donate generously as this is going to take every ounce of effort from the Core Telecom Team to raise some money for Diabetes UK!
