DSUK Skiathon: £14,000 raised so far!
Last week,over 150 participants spent 6 gruelling hours on the slopes in indoor snowdomes across the UK to raise money for Disability Snowsport UK. Everyone made an outstanding effort - skiing indoors on the same run for so long is a real feat! Thank you to everyone who took part and sponsored teams.
The local Navigation Inn Team (above left) won the challenge at Milton Keynes Sno!Zone with an incredible 666 runs!
I enjoyed meeting Olympic medalist Leon Taylor, I don't know how he managed to be so enthusiastic and full of energy after hours of snowboarding indoors! Eddie the Eagle and Heather Mills also took part.

Disability Snowsport enables those with disabilities to access snowsports as a means of therapy, social inclusion and life-enhancing activity. People taking part often tell us that snowsports have changed their lives, it has certainly changed mine!
