We’re Tackling 24-mile Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge in Aid of Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice

Members of our team are preparing to take on one of Yorkshire’s most demanding walking challenges this month, with the aim of raising vital funds for local charity Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice.

The challenge will see the team complete the 24-mile route through the Yorkshire Dales, taking in the three peaks of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough, with approximately 1,585 metres of ascent to conquer along the way. The team will also be working against the traditional 12-hour target for completing the route.

Five staff members will be completing the climb on Saturday 12th September 2026 (photographed left to right):

Sales Development Representative Andrew Riding

Managing Director Justin Carl

Technical Support Team Leader Luke Warby

Group Marketing Manager Kate Figg

The challenge forms the first event in a planned programme of fundraising activities by the ProVu team, with the aim of supporting the work of Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice, which provides care and support to children with life-shortening conditions and their families across West Yorkshire and surrounding areas.

Commenting on the challenge, ProVu’s Managing Director Justin Carl said:

We have all been touched by the amazing work Forget Me Not does for families across our local area and we wanted to do something that would not only raise money but also challenge us as a team.

The Yorkshire Three Peaks certainly gives us a challenge! Twenty-four miles and three peaks is going to test us and I’m sure there will be some very tired legs and aching feet by the end of it.

This is just the first event in our fundraising calendar and our aim is to raise as much as we can for this incredible charity. We’re really looking forward to getting out there, taking on the challenge together and hopefully getting plenty of support along the way.

Our Charity for the Year: Forget Me Not Hospice

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve chosen to support Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice.

Why Choose Forget Me Not?

“Life limiting.” “Life shortening.”

These are the terms no parent wants to hear. But sadly families hear those phrases for the first every day.

And it’s the incredible people at Forget Me Not who help children and families across the whole of Yorkshire to cope with the news, handle the medical jargon, and be there for families for however long they need them. Sometimes it’s years of support with a loved one, sometimes the loved one has only only hours or days. No matter the length of time the child is here, Forget Me Not can kindly help the family to navigate very emotional and difficult times.

Forget Me Not Charity does amazing work in the surrounding areas in which ProVu and our staff live. As a company that values family – some of whom are or soon-to-be be parents, we wanted to reflect this value in our choice. Last year we did adhoc fundraising for Forget Me Not. Now we’d like to step it up a notch and raise more to contribute to the overall costs of operating the hospice and its services.

The work Forget Me Not does to support local families is incredible. It ranges from fun days out to make memories through to support liaising with police and hospitals. Their day-to-day responsibilities bring a tear to the eye.

Right now, the charity is helping 165 children and their families; their parents, siblings, and grandparents.

Forget Me Not needs 7 million GBP to continue their great work for another year. With only 18.5% of this is government funded, they need companies like ours to work hard and play hard to raise funds. From world cup sweepstakes to physical challenges, we’re putting our heads together to choose how we’ll do this.
