YFC conquers twin peaks for charity
8:30am Wednesday 19th November 2008
YOUNG Farmers living near Hay-on-Wye completed a gruelling Twin Peaks Challenge to raise more than £3000 for charity.
Around 24 members of Llanigon YFC conquered Snowdon and Pen y Fan in one weekend.
The youngsters topped 3560ft in North Wales on Saturday before travelling closer to home for a 2907ft challenge in the Brecon Beacons on Sunday.
Proceeds will be split evenly between the club itself and the County Air Ambulance thanks to a range of sponsors which included NFU Mutual, Ivor Duggan & Sons, Hay Vetinerary Group and Extreme Organix takeaway.
