Graeme Souness to Climb UK’s Highest Peaks for Charity
He will tackle three peaks and three swims to raise at least £500,000 for DEBRA UK and fund EB treatments.
- Former Rangers and Liverpool manager Graeme Souness will climb Ben Nevis, Snowdon, and Scafell Pike over three days this September, alongside three high-altitude swims, to raise at least £500,000 for DEBRA.
- The challenge supports the DEBRA £20 million Stop the Pain appeal, which aims to fund better care for those with rare, painful genetic skin conditions that cause blistering and tearing from the slightest touch.
- Souness said his 'toughest challenge yet' aims to fund clinical trials for new treatments, building on previous successful fundraising swims across the English Channel that raised millions of pounds.
- 'Every donation and every share matters,' Souness noted, urging the public to support the cause online at the DEBRA website to help secure effective treatments.
- While the three-day mountain and swim challenge will be 'brutal,' Souness noted it remains incomparable to the daily pain faced by children and adults living with the condition.
