Charity staff to take on Three Peaks challenge for sexual abuse survivors

The 24-hour trek covers more than 17 miles and 2,330 metres of ascent to fund specialist support for survivors.

  • Staff from the West Mercia Rape & Sexual Abuse Support Centre will climb Snowdon, Cadair Idris, and Pen y Fan on May 2, 2026, marking the charity's 40th anniversary with the Welsh Three Peaks Challenge.
  • Spanning more than 17 miles and 2,330 metres of ascent, the 24-hour challenge is described by WMRSASC staff as both a test of endurance and a show of solidarity with survivors of sexual violence.
  • WMRSASC chief executive Jocelyn Anderson said, "This challenge is about more than reaching the summit," as the charity provides trauma-informed services across Herefordshire, Worcestershire, and Shropshire.
  • Lydia Johnson, team lead for counselling services and an adult counsellor at WMRSASC, said, "You are giving people the chance to take their power back," regarding the impact of fundraising.
  • Donations can be made through the charity's JustGiving page or by visiting the WMRSASC website, as the organization calls on individuals, businesses, and communities to support the effort.
