14th June 2025
All about the challenge
Compton Care and Wolves Foundation have joined forces for an unforgettable Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge this summer.
Taking place on Saturday 14 June, the funds raised from this event will be split equally between both charities to support our vital work in different communities across Wolverhampton and the Black Country.
The 24 mile circular route challenge, which is being led by the Sky Blue Adventures team, will start at 7am with the first climb of the day on Pen y Ghent. After a lunch stop around 12pm to refuel, the next summit will be Whernside, followed by the last climb of the day on Ingleborough. Arriving back into Horton-in-Ribblesdale at around 7pm.
As part of our team of Hiking Heroes, you will be fully supported on the stunning 24 mile route by experienced mountain leaders. Taking around 12 hours from start to finish.
This is a tough challenge, but one not to be missed. You will need to have a good level of fitness and have undergone some hill walking training to take part in this event.

Vicky's story
As a Hiking Hero, you will be helping Compton Care continue to be there for people with life limiting conditions and their families when they need us most.
Vicky took part in last years hike, which was to Snowdon in memory of her mom, Joyce.
Compton Care holds a very special place in my heart as my beautiful mom, Joyce, was under Compton’s care and I will be forever thankful. To anybody considering signing up I would say just go for it! I think it’s good to push yourself and get out your comfort zone!
