Inspired by our sponsored Wildfire Walk last May, BMC Peak District Hill Walking Rep, Alex Davis-Ward, has created an 18 mile fundraising Challenge Walk - to race the sun on one of the shortest days this winter.

This month, BMC-funded Wildfire Engagement Officer, Damian, went to no.10 to represent the entire ranger and volunteer team who have worked tirelessly to protect the Peak District from wildfire this summer.

Thirteen Get Stuck In volunteers re-built and maintained drainage ditches and high mountain paths below Tryfan and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) in North Wales.

Sixteen Get Stuck In volunteers maintained high mountain paths near Tryfan in Eryri (Snowdonia), then tended to native tree saplings ready for planting.

The BMC Access & Conservation Trust sponsored Wildfire Walk fundraisers raised an incredible £11,146 to protect and restore the Sheffield Moors area from wildfire.

This 1-7 June is Volunteers' Week and we'd like to say a colossal THANK YOU to all of our incredible BMC volunteers for making the organisation run smoothly and effectively - your impact cannot be underestimated!

A prize bundle of £895 worth of outdoor gear and courses awaits the person who raises the most for the BMC Access & Conservation Trust wildfire appeal by the end of 2026.
