National Charity's Outdoor Challenge to help hearts this summer

NATIONAL charity Heart Research UK is making a Springtime call to walkers and hikers to join its 20th Annual Three Peaks challenge in the Yorkshire Dales this summer and raise funds for its work in helping hearts near you.

The charity's new Three Peaks Day in the Dales event on 18 June 2016 is ideal for walkers, hikers and families alike with walks for all ages and abilities as well as a day of fun filled activities for families to enjoy.

The event is a partnership between Heart Research UK and the Yorkshire Dales National Park's Three Peaks Project and is supported by home shopping and online fashion brand Damart.

Money raised from the event will help people live healthier, happier and longer lives as well as improving and maintaining the much loved and therefore much used footpath network in the Three Peaks area around Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough.

If you're into a gentle stroll, a steady challenge or a more strenuous hill walk, set in one of the UK's most celebrated national parks, the Yorkshire Dales, with some of our country's finest landscapes, beautiful vistas and exciting wildlife, the Heart Research UK's Three Peaks event will have something for everyone to enjoy.

There will be three routes on offer the 25 mile Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge; a less strenuous 15mile route which meanders around the valleys, or for those who prefer a gentle stroll and have younger or older participants, a flat, but equally as scenic 5k nature walk in and around the village of Horton in Ribblesdale.

Add to all that the Family Day with its sports day, stalls with fresh local produce, games and activities to make a great day out and you'll have the perfect family experience that will not only improve your heart heath, but will also conserve of one of the UK's most scenic and epic areas of beauty.

It's FREE to come along and enjoy the Day in the Dales but, to make sure you're safe and enjoy our day we are asking for a registration fee to take part in the Three Peaks and Valleys walks and Nature Trail. For this, you'll get manned checkpoints, qualified 1st aiders, response and sweeps teams. We'll even give you a lift if you drop out during your walk. All profits will go to helping hearts near you and the maintenance of the Three Peaks paths.

Entry fees:- 3 Peaks walk £25; Valleys walk £15; Family 5k Nature Trail £5 (or free for children under 12)

If you would like to take part in 2016's event, please visit the Heart Research UK website or contact them on:- 0113 234 7474 to request an information pack.
