Unbelievable - but TRUE!
Georgina and William have completed the Spatula Challenge!!!
Yes - the 3 highest Peaks in the mainland of UK: Ben Nevis [Scotland], Scafell Pike [England] and Snowdon [Wales] ... and they also cycled in between each one!! Over 400 miles of cycling, a lot of vertical [11,198ft/4136m] and some amazing Fundraising in the process.
Calculations are still being completed, but it looks as though holidays4heroes will benefit by over £8000!!! Thank you, Will [14] and George [16] [or George and Will, Ladies first and all that]. And thank you everyone who sponsored and supported them on this amazing exercise. A full story will appear on this website in due course.
Thanks also to WO HAMILCAR who went along for the ride in the support vehicle, and turned up at the moment of glory on each peak!!

Holidays 4 Heroes is an informal group of people that assists wounded service personnel and their families get a precious break from the routine of rehab, hospital appointments and visits to welfare offices by facilitating holidays away from it all in accommodation donated by our sponsors in the UK and abroad. 
Deals with the cases that either lie outside the normal remit of the main Service Charities, or require a faster response than they can usually provide. Sometimes the cases require financial assistance, a little bit of nudging in the right direction for long-term help, or the application of a bit of expertise.
