The determined team of FPCR colleagues recently completed the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge, all in support of Mind, the mental health charity. The challenge took our team across 24.5 miles of rugged terrain, conquering a combined ascent of 1,585 metres (5,200 feet) — a true test of endurance, resilience, and teamwork.
The route tackled the iconic peaks of Pen-y-Ghent (694m), Whernside (736m), and Ingleborough (723m), all nestled within the spectacular Yorkshire Dales National Park. These three summits form part of the Pennine range, encircling the head of the valley of the River Ribble. With their dramatic scenery and steep climbs, they presented a physically and mentally demanding challenge — fitting for a cause dedicated to mental health.
Through tired legs, and tough terrain, the team supported one another every step of the way — embodying the values of perseverance, camaraderie, and collective purpose. And thanks to the generous support of colleagues, friends, family, and the wider community, we’re proud to announce that we surpassed our fundraising target, incredibly raising over £3,000 for Mind.
Mind’s work in providing advice, support, and campaigning for better mental health services is more important than ever. We’re honoured to contribute to their mission and raise awareness of the mental health challenges many face every day.
