Join NishkamSWAT's Snowdon Trek to Raise Funds 
, the highest mountain in Wales, to help raise funds to buy a 
FibroScan Machine 
for Liver Disease Awareness and Early Detection!
We’re inviting you to take on an exciting challenge to support a cause close to our hearts. Join us as we climb 
Snowdon
, the highest mountain in Wales, to help raise funds for a 
FibroScan Machine
 to aid in liver disease awareness and early detection. Let’s make a difference together!
The Trek:
Enjoy the breathtaking views and fresh mountain air as we make our way up Snowdon. This challenge is suitable for all fitness levels, with a steady pace and a mix of well-maintained paths and some more challenging terrain. Once we reach the peak (1,085 meters/3,560 feet), you'll be rewarded with incredible panoramic views a perfect moment to reflect on the journey and the cause.
We’ll be using the 
Llanberis Path Route
 for our ascent. (Postcode for Sat Nav: LL55 4TD)
Trek Essentials:
Registration Fee
: £50 (includes transport from NishkamSWAT HQ, Hayes UB4 0JT)
Fundraising Target
: Minimum £200 each
Date
: 26th July 2025
The Cause:
We are raising funds for the 
Amrik Singh Rai Liver Screening Campaign
, which aims to provide 
FibroScan screenings
 to those at risk of liver disease. This campaign was started in memory of 
Amrik Singh Rai
, who tragically passed away from liver cancer in June 2024. His story highlights the importance of early detection, as liver disease often remains undiagnosed until it’s too late.
Liver disease is often called a "silent killer" because many don’t experience symptoms until damage is already severe. 
FibroScan
 is a simple, non-invasive scan that can detect liver damage before symptoms appear, allowing for early intervention and better health outcomes.
How We’re Making a Difference:
Liver Screening Clinics
: Bringing 
FibroScan screenings
 to underserved communities, helping people understand their liver health and take early action.
Community Education
: Raising awareness about liver disease and its risk factors, including obesity, diabetes, and alcohol use.
FibroScan
 is a quick, painless procedure where a small probe measures liver stiffness and fat content. The results are available immediately, and if liver damage is detected, early action can be life-saving.
How You Can Help:
By joining our trek and fundraising, you’re helping us provide 
FibroScan screenings
 to people who can’t afford them. Your support is critical in preventing liver disease from becoming life-threatening for many.
