Overseas aid and development agency CARE International has announced the launch 
of their very first event taking place exclusively in Scotland, which aims to raise
at least £50,000 for its humanitarian work. The CARE 3 Peaks Scotland Challenge 
is scheduled for the weekend of 23-24th June 2007.

The Challenge is open to corporate teams of 4-6 walkers, from any sector. It tests
participants to push their physical boundaries to the limit, by climbing Scotland’s
3 Ben More (“Big Hill”) mountains – Ben More Crianlarich (1174m), Ben More Assynt
Inchnadamph (998m) and Ben More Mull (966m) – all within 24 hours. Each team must
also raise £5,000 for CARE.

Teams will be supported every step of the way during their preparations in the run-
up to the event, however, with on-hand training and fundraising support from CARE’s
in-house Challenge Team, who are also running the event.
