Childsplay on the Pinn and raising awareness of a very good cause.

28/08/14

With so much work going on this summer regulars will have noticed that blogging has dropped in the priorities. One important one I should have done at the time was with the Young family who, in addition to having fun, are training daughter Nina for an ambitious plan to cross Antarctica when she is 18. She hopes to raise a huge amount of money for the Teapot Trust. Details are explained in a letter from dad John below.  Team Young

Much fun & many good lessons were learnt by the whole family over a couple of days, finishing with a full team ascent of the Inaccessible Pinnacle. Well done to John, Laura, Nina and Isla and every bit of luck with the Teapot Trust.

The Teapot Trust provides essential art therapy for chronically ill children in Scotland and is coming to London and Northern Ireland. The teapot Trust was set up by Laura and I, after our daughter Verity died at 8 years of age, to provide the treatment that was unavailable to Verity. In 2013 the Teapot Trust helped 2682 children funded entirely by donations.

Many thanks, John
