Ben Nevis Trek
Join #TeamMHUK and take on one of the UK’s most iconic treks
Overview of the event
This challenge takes you into the heart of the breath-taking Western Highlands in order to conquer the highest peak in Britain set at 1,345m above sea level.
The trail to the summit is technically easy, but trekking Ben Nevis is a challenge – stamina and determination are a must! The stunning views of the highlands will be with you all the way and provide a fantastic backdrop to one of the most sought after charity challenges in the UK!
Most have not experienced the beauty of the Scottish Highlands so we invite you with us on a special journey – don’t underestimate the fun and camaraderie on this UK weekend challenge. Return transport is provided from Glasgow enabling you to just enjoy the experience.
Once you’ve registered our friendly fundraising team will be in touch to support you on your fundraising journey. You can expect:
- Free fundraising toolkit with tips and ideas to push you to the finish line
- Branded merchandise to help you with your fundraising
- Mental Health UK t-shirt so you can proudly represent us at your event
- Regular email updates with all the information you’ll need
- A friendly team to support you all the way
Top tip for reaching your fundraising target.
Organise a fundraising event at work or with friends as soon as you join #TeamMHUK. Fundraising for #TeamMHUK is a reason to do something fun. It could be a cheese and wine night, a film screening at your house or a BBQ where people make a donation to come along. Run a raffle, or a sweepstake during the event and you will be surprised at just how much you can raise.
Remember that whatever money you raise will really make a difference to our work and people’s lives.
You can still join #TeamMHUK
If you’ve already signed up to take part in the Snowdon Trek but paid your entrance fee directly to the event organisers, you can still take part for us. We’d love you to join #TeamMHUK as an Own Place Runner. Just send an email using the link below to let us know.
You’ll get all the same benefits as a Charity Place Runner, but you won’t have a minimum fundraising target.
By signing up as an Own Place Runner you must have already received your place and paid your entry fee directly to the event organiser.
The positive impact the group has had on me is huge. I don’t feel so isolated any more. If the support had not been available I would still be facing depression and loneliness, unable to look after myself and over-thinking things.
Raise money and have fun!
Read what some of our fundraisers have to say.
"I enjoyed seeing my fundraising increase on a weekly basis, the events that I organised pushed me out of my comfort zone, I talked to people about Mental Health in a way that I would never have done otherwise."
Louise Greenwood,

"I was totally elated when I crossed the line and so glad I’d given it a go!"
Helen Taylor
"Mental Health UK was a friendly partner to have. I received lots of motivational encouragement via email which maybe doesn’t sound like much but knowing people are rooting for you really helps"
