It’s been a couple of months since we’ve been in the Peak District but we’re back and it’s looking as glorious as ever. The outdoors is an incredible place to gather your thoughts especially at times of change like this

We’re in the Clwydians with the silver and Snowdonia with the gold’s and it’s wasaaaarm!

It was definitely a warm 1 yesterday but plenty of checkpoints, available water and some determined teams meant the 1st day of the Bronze qualifying expedition was a success 💪🏽

[ChallengeExpeditions @ChallengeEx]

We started a 3 peaks in 3 days today with 29 year 8 pupils. They did an amazing job in horrible conditions on Ben Nevis. NEXT!
