Josh's public services group from Chichester College 'The Bronzes' climbed four peaks in aid of Josh's fund. The four peaks they were to conquer in just 6 days were:

Ben Nevis 1344 metres
Scafell Pike 978 metres
Mount Snowdon 1085 metres
Pen Y Fan 886 metres

This is Ray Ewins account of the trip.

Arrived back from the 4 peaks mid afternoon on Friday 9th June 2006. It's taken till now to gather my thoughts, energy and time to put down what happened!!
Well we travelled North to Fort William on Saturday 3rd June at 1030. After almost a 12hr journey we finally arrived in Fort William having been told on the journey by text that our accommodation and guide were no longer available! We eventually found various beds in some gnat infested hostel at £13.00 per person. I shared a bunk space with a German family! With the rest of the group spread around the hostel. The morning could not arrive quick enough! All up, bitten by gnats, tired, no breakfast, no guide and off we went in search of Ben Nevis.
We quickly stumbled over the thing, no more that 1 mile from our questionable accommodation. 0630 and we started to climb, absolutely fantastic experience, no guide, beautiful weather, views beyond any before with a group of young people who were, like Josh, 'Up for it'. We climbed and climbed, some 4 hours later we are stood on the peak, in snow, exhausted but smiling (photo's to follow). We carved Josh's name took photo's had some food and a snowball fight in the spirit of Josh and started back down. Almost 3hrs to return to the bus, a total of 8hrs walk, then a 5 hour drive south to the Lake district and Scafell Pike.
We arrived in a place called Loweswater at 2100 our accommodation was Swallow Barn.....WE knew it couldn't be as bad as the night before, but we did wonder at the cost £6.00 per person. This was a cause for concern the whole trip south!! Well it turned out to be stables!! But we were all so tired it didn't really matter what it was. Up early, breakfast an onto Scafell Pike for 0800. A very hard and testing climb, two in two days, step and at times dangerous. Once again we plastered Josh over the biggest rock we could find and talked about how Josh would have loved the experience. I can honestly say that he was always in our thoughts as we ventured on the challenge and as the challenge at times became hard so we called on Josh.
Down from Scafell we drove to Mount Snowdon and stayed in an old Naval Cottage at Bethesda, one Neil and I had used when in the RN. So we knew we would have a good nights sleep and good food and a well earned beer or two.
Tuesday was rest day, we went to Rhyl and had an ice cream!!! First thing Wednesday we climbed Snowdon, legs tired, really hot off we went, 4 hours later we are on the top having a cuppa in the cafe, dreading the downward trip, as by now the legs are tired and the joints feel every downward jarring movement, the train looked inviting, but the £14.00 cost down didn't. So off we went, at the bottom into the bus for a 3 hour drive to the Brecon Beacon's to our good friend Owen's Pub, The White Heart in Taly Bont on Usk. Where he accommodated and fed us for 2 nights for no charge. He also made a contribution of £100.00 to the fund and a pint mug collection from his regulars. A true diamond geezer. He now wants to be on next years Josh's challenge.
Thursday with hangovers we climbed Peny Fan, glad and sad that we were at the end of our expedition having travelled 2,421 miles, and climbed 4,293 mts, our journey was nearing an end. We had been together 6 nights and all shared a unique experience for a young man that we all enjoyed being around. This trip will be with us forever, fantastic doesn't come close enough.
