A team of staff from Woodland Grange Primary School, part of OAK Multi Academy Trust, will be taking on the Leicestershire Three Peaks Challenge on Saturday 23 May to raise money for Leicester Hospitals Charity (Ward 27).
The team will complete a demanding 16-mile route, taking in countryside paths, woodland trails and hilltop climbs including Bardon Hill, Old John Tower and Beacon Hill. The challenge is hosted by Elite Adventures and will test both endurance and determination.
The fundraising effort holds deep meaning for the school community, and is a way of recognising the care, compassion and expertise shown by the staff on Ward 27.
It is also about standing alongside all children and families facing similar challenges, and acknowledging the vital role hospital teams play in supporting them through incredibly difficult times.
This reflects the values at the heart of OAK Multi Academy Trust, where kindness, community and collective support underpin everything we do. Colleagues coming together in this way demonstrates the strength of that community and the desire to make a positive difference beyond the classroom.
Families, colleagues and the wider community are invited to support the team, whether through donations or by helping to raise awareness.
Every contribution will support the continued work of Leicester Hospitals Charity and help ensure families receive the care and support they need.
