Three Peaks. Four Causes.

Our team completed the Three Peaks Challenge on 6 to 7 June, 2026.

This incredible challenge saw 20 colleagues and industry friends climb the highest mountains in England, Scotland and Wales: Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon. It is one of the events in the IGG calendar that we look forward to most each year.

Starting at 1:52 PM on 6 June and finishing at 1:29 PM on 7 June, the team successfully completed the challenge within 24 hours.

Through this year’s fundraising efforts, we supported local charities that mean a great deal to colleagues across the IGG regional hubs in Manchester, Edinburgh, Bristol, and now Birmingham.

Following a colleague vote, four fantastic charities were chosen to benefit from the IGG Three Peaks fundraising challenge.

While it was certainly demanding, with steep climbs, snow, and winds of more than 50 mph at one stage, everyone was incredibly proud to cross the finish line in support of these charities.

Having strong local roots is important to us. We are proud of the communities where we live and work, and supporting these charities is a small but meaningful way of giving something back.

Every step we took during the Three Peaks Challenge was for these incredible charities, and every donation, big or small, makes a real difference. 

Thank you for supporting us on this journey.
