Ski the World Challenge 2012

/


Thank you to all the participants who took part in the Inaugural Ski the World Challenge in Courmayeur, Italy.

It was a fantastic weekend which saw more vertical metres skiied than thought possible in just three days. The commitment shown by all teams was truly inspirational - the difference you have made in the lives of young children living with life-threatening illnesses is incredible.

We are pleased to announce that the event raised a total of £17,169 for Make-A-Wish Foundation UK. This number is still climbing!

And now for the results......
All teams completed the challenge - outstanding work! Just goes to show that all the hard work was worth it - and that the apres ski was completely justified.
