Climbing the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales in just 24 hours is the charity challenge a North Somerset team are setting off for today.

The ten employees - from the Council and I-T contractor Agilysis - are leaving Clevedon for the Three Peaks Challenge, starting their ascent of Ben Nevis north of the border at 4am tomorrow. 

They aim to raise three thousand pounds for their chosen causes - Weston Hospicecare and Operation Smile.
