The countdown is on! Just a couple of weeks to go until Masham Sheep Fair 🐑

The posters are up! We've had our final committee meeting and looking forward to welcoming you all on the last weekend in September. Many will recognise the poster and tea-towel style (on sale from the trailer at the centre of the market place). Talented local, Rob Blades creates a new one in a similar style every year.

Help support our Three-Peaks Ranger , Thomas Andrews! Donate £1 today to fix eroded paths and protect Yorkshire’s landscape 🥾⛰️

Three Peaks Project

What is the Three Peaks Project?

In 1987, a report by the Institute of Terrestrial Ecology claimed that the path network in the Three Peaks area was the most severely eroded in the UK. Some paths across the more fragile parts of the route had grown to 50m wide in places.

Since then, a great deal of effort and money has gone into improving the network and addressing erosion on Yorkshire’s Three Peaks.

However, with less money, staff and ongoing pressure from the number of walkers the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority had to find new ways to fund this vital work.

So in April 2009, the Three Peaks Project was set up. The project aims to ensure the area is maintained and improved in the long term by generating a sustainable income to help pay for its management.

Please Donate to the Three Peaks today or become a Friend of the Three Peaks.

What do we spend money on?

All donations to the project help to keep our Three Peaks Ranger in post. They focus on the continuing maintenance of the paths in this special area, making sure the Three Peaks route is kept in tip top condition, keeping them very busy!

Without this support, the footpaths would soon fall into disrepair and become badly eroded once more, and the surrounding landscape would be severely damaged.

Would you consider donating just £1 to support the Three Peaks project 🥾⛰️

Would you be willing to give £1 ❤️

Thank you to everyone who has supported so far — it really means a lot.
