Jonathan needs your support as he takes on
the 5 Peaks Challenge in aid of ‘Help for Heroes

My name is Jonathan Kendall. I am 19 years old and in my first year of studying Electronic and Electrical Engineering at Loughborough University.

I have for many years now been a Cadet Flt Sgt at 121 ( Nuneaton ) Squadron Air Training Corps.

In this time I have taken part of numerous charity events and thanks to the cadets I have also been involved in a wide range of adventure training activities including the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme; however I have never thought to combine the two. Now thanks to the Loughborough RAG office I am now going to take part in the 5 peaks challenge on 21st - 24th June.

The 5 Peaks challenge is Duke of Edinburgh to the extreme. It involves ascending and descending the five highest peaks in Britain ; Ben Nevis , Scaffell Pike, Snowdon , Helvellyn and Cadair Idris. I only have 3 days to complete the event which is really what make this a ‘challenge'.

I need to raise a minimum of £350, I hope to make it a lot more as the money raised will be going to the ‘Help for Heroes' charity.
