Enjoy the sunrise over Pen y Fan as you ‘Hike for Hope’ on Mother’s Day

From the first step to the summit, what better way to celebrate everything about your incredible mum or mother figure by seeing the sun rise at the top of the stunning Pen y Fan, followed by a celebratory drink and tasty treat.

Whether you’re walking to remember your mum or alongside her, you’ll create new memories to cherish for years to come. At the same time, knowing you’ve helped ensure bereaved children and young people don’t have to face grief alone.

By taking on this hike you’re showing bereaved children everywhere that challenges can be faced and that there’s help during the hardest of climbs. So, join us and hike to make a real difference to a grieving child’s life.

You will experience the magic of a Brecon Beacons sunrise from the summit of Pen y Fan, South Wales’ highest peak. Starting before dawn from Storey Arms, you’ll climb under starlight with headtorches guiding the way, making this adventure all the more memorable. The steady ascent suits all fitness levels and rewards you with breathtaking views as the sun breaks over the mountains.

Registrations have now closed! If you want to get in touch about the hike, please email events@winstonswish.org and we’ll be happy to answer any questions.
