Imran Khan Cancer Appeal - Scafell Pike Challenge

We can’t wait to be reunited with our intrepid adventurers! Have you got what it takes?

Located in a commanding position in the Central Lakeland Fells, Scafell Pike is the highest mountain in England, at 978 meters, and the shortest mountain of the 3 Peaks Challenge. There are two routes available for the climb - either Seathwaite or Wasdale Head. The Wasdale Head route is six miles long, up and down and includes 989 meters of ascent. The route we will take is to be agreed upon with the trek guides, depending on the weather on the day of the challenge.

When: Sunday, 3 May, 2026 – 8.30 am

Meeting Point: Wasdale Head, Seascale, CA20 1EX

Environmental Responsibility:

During the trek, please respect the natural beauty of Scafell Pike and follow Leave No Trace principles. Do not litter, stay on designated paths, and be mindful of the environment.

Fundraising:

There is a £150 minimum fundraising target for each trek. This excludes the £19.99 Registration Fee (or £50.00 to sign up for all 3 Peaks -saving you £9.97!) which will cover event management expenses such as the fees of trek guides, light refreshments for the trek, and first aid. The amount that you raise will go directly towards providing free cancer treatment for needy patients at the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospitals in Lahore and Peshawar.

To make fundraising easier, we recommend setting up a JustGiving page https://www.justgiving.com/Shaukat. It’s quick, easy and saves you from having to collect wads of cash. Once you’ve got one, all you’ll need to do is forward your JustGiving page link to friends and contacts, and they can donate online, directly to Imran Khan Cancer Appeal. You can also share updates and pictures on JustGiving so everyone who sponsors you can keep track of your progress. Your efforts make a significant impact on our cause, and every contribution counts.
