Join the Mencap Mountain Challenge!
Staying at home is vital to protect our communities at this time, but we know it can be tough. We want to help keep your spirits up, whilst also improving your fitness, achieving something amazing and having fun!
The goal of the Mencap Mountain Challenge is to climb the equivalent number of flights of stairs as a well-known mountain of your choice!
It costs £10 to take part and the money you raise will help support our work to improve the lives of people with a learning disability.
