AwimAway are extremely pleased to launch the very first 'Trek 4a cheque' challenge on behalf of two extremely hard-working and worthy children's charities- Sophie's Appeal (raising money for children with cancer and cancer research) and A Wa Po (raising money to build a school in Nigeria for disabled children).
Join Harish Kohli ,world-record-holding explorer and founder of AwimAway.com, on an invigorating and scenic trek to the summit of the highest mountain in England and Wales- Mount Snowdon.

For just £34 (including transport from Southampton and accomodation at the foot of Snowdon), join us on this fantastic fundraising event in the picturesque location of Snowdonia, northern Wales. Sign-up quickly as places are limited and don't forget to gain sponsorship for your completion of this invigorating challenge (there will be a prize for the person who raises the most money for each charity!).
 
Good health and ability is a pre-requisite for this event as we will be walking for 5-6 hours, although the trek iteslf is not considered to be difficult.
The event promises to be challenging, motivating and above all fun!
