40 Peaks for 40 Grand Challenge
12493
Following on from the success of our 5 Peaks Challenge in August 2023, where we raised £42,000 raised for our 4 nominated charities, WaterAid asked us to get involved in their Munro Challenge event which is happening on Saturday, June 6th 2026.
A Munro is over 914.4m. But our EPS Group twist will be extending this to 40 if these peaks across the UK and Ireland.
Over 2 days, team members from our Group companies - EPS, EPS UK, DPS, IPP, Pedrollo Distribution, Ferrier Pumps, Craigs and Flowmech will challenge themselves to climb 40 Munros.
Led by Gareth Wilson, the Irish leg will cover 11 Munros over 2 days.
It all kicks off on Saturday, June 6th, which will see them take on Carrauntoohil and the MacGillycuddy Reeks, while Sunday, June 7th will see them face Mount Brandon.
The Scottish leg, led by Ferrier Pumps' David McIntosh, will see three teams tackle the Glenshee 9 (Advanced); Càrn Gorm, Meall Garbh, Càrn Mairg & Creag Mhòr (Intermediate) and Mayar & Driesh (Beginner).
The English and Welsh climbs will be led by Pedrollo Distribution's Kevin Davey and Flowmech's Henry Piggin.
Team 1 will face the Lake District North over three stages - S1 - Scafell Pike, Scafell, Ill Crag & Broad Crag, S2 - Helvellyn and S3 - Skiddaw. Team 2 will undertake the Carneddau Traverse - Carnedd Llewelyn, Carnedd Dafydd, Yr Elen, Pen yr Ole Wen, Foel-grach, Garnedd Uchaf and Foel-fras, while Team 3 will face the Snowdon Massif - Snowdon, Garnedd Ugain and Crib Goch.
No mean feat - but we smashed the 5 Peaks in 48 hours challenge - what's another 35 peaks to add to the list?!
