Five ways to challenge yourself!
There are plenty of challenges you can take on to raise money for Elidyr Communities Trust. Here are five of our favourites. Contact Ellie to find out how to take part and to get a sponsorship form.
Snowdon Triple Challenge
The Snowdon Triple Challenge is a thrilling endurance event, combining cycling, trekking, and kayaking in one day.
