Join us in supporting the Twin Peaks Challenge for Venturing Out CIC

Thursday 20th November 2025

 
 

This weekend, on 22nd November, a dedicated group of Parents and Carers will take on the Twin Peaks Challenge to raise vital funds for Venturing Out CIC’s Adventure Wellbeing Programmes.

The challenge will see participants first climb Traprain Law near East Linton before taking on a 17km trek to North Berwick, finishing with a final ascent of North Berwick Law. It’s an inspiring and demanding route — and an incredible show of commitment from those taking part.

All of the individuals involved are unpaid Carers who either attend the sessions with their children who have additional support needs or take part in Venturing Out’s Carers Programme, which provides essential respite and time to focus on mental health and wellbeing.

The group has set an ambitious fundraising target of £5,000, with all proceeds going towards helping the organisation continue offering free, accessible outdoor adventure activities for people with a wide range of needs. As funding becomes increasingly challenging to secure, support from the local  community is more important than ever.
