Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon in just 24 hours!

3 Jul 2025

The team takes on Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon in just 24 hours! Better-IT Limited, volunteers and members of the Health and Wellbeing team go to Scotland to take on the National 3 Peak Challenge.

We believe everyone should be given the opportunity to turn their lives around and reach independence. We support service users daily, providing them with Mental Health groups to get involved in, activities and group meetings. This challenge was to raise awareness and funds to support the homeless and those in need across Leicestershire. Last year Falcon provided over 25,000 meals, housed over 250 and had over 10,000 visits at our drop-in service.

Ben Nevis is the highest mountain in Scotland, the United Kingdom, and the British Isles. The average time it takes to climb this mountain is around 7-8 hours! Although Ben Nevis is the sixth hardest hike the team charged on dedicated to bringing awareness to the Falcon.

The second mountain the team climbed was Scafell Pike. Typically taking between 4-8 hours to do a round-trip Scafell Pike has an elevation of 978 meters above sea level, making it the highest mountain in England! Scafell Pike is one of the harder climbs, as it is a steep hike.

Finally, the team took on Snowdon! Taking 6-8 hours to climb Snowdon is the Highest Mountain in Wales. Beautiful scenery, plants and wildlife to see.

Thank you to everyone who supported the team as they took on this difficult, but rewarding challenge. A big thank you to everyone who came along to the National 3 Peaks! Although, exhausted everyone had a blast, raising awareness for Falcon Support Services.
