On a perfect Saturday in September, friends of Skanda Vale Hospice took on the Two Peaks Challenge Switzerland, hiking 11km at altitudes of up to 2450m and climbing the two peaks Glattwang and Mattlishorn. The team tackled the rugged landscape together, supporting each other through every step and enjoying the beautiful scenery. They wrapped up the day with a refreshing swim and picnic beside a mountain lake.
So far, the team have raised over £17000 to help the hospice provide free care and support to families affected by life-limiting illnesses.

Thank you for an unforgettable day and all the support for Skanda Vale Hospice.
