Total Access (UK) Ltd sponsor Princes Trust Mount Toubkal Charity Climb

Total Access (UK) Ltd is pleased to have sponsored the Mount Toubkal Charity Climb for the Princes Trust.

The 2013 challenge included, hiking, climbing and even horse riding through Morocco to raise funds for the Princes Trust. Lesley Houlston, our sponsored climber (pictured below) was involved in completing the following challenges.

The group hiked and horse rode 75 kilometres in five days, as well as climbing North Africa’s highest mountain, Mount Toubkal which measures 4,167 metres. In addition, the group also walked over mountain passes and through remote villages, and have had the chance to explore the vibrant Marrakech.

The main motivation behind this challenge was to raise money for the Princes Trust, to help change the lives of the UK’s most disadvantaged young people. The group have succeeded in raising over £27k which will go towards helping the 1 in 5 young people in the UK who are not in work, education or training. The Princes Trust can help these young people by giving practical and financial support to those who need it most; they can help to develop key skills, confidence and motivation, enabling young people to move into work, education or training.
