Le Maitre is proud to be sponsoring Scott Butler as he begins his Journey to Mount Elbrus

Today Scott Butler begins his Journey to Mount Elbrus challenge.

Setting off from Box Hill in Surrey this morning, his journey will see him cycle 1,800 miles across Europe to the western coast of the Black Sea. There he will swap his bike for a boat and row 750 miles solo across the Black Sea. The row is a world record attempt and will be recognised by Guinness World Records. The challenge will end with Scott climbing Mount Elbrus, Europe's highest mountain.

Scott is doing this to raise money for three amazing charities - The Fire Fighters Charity, MS Society and Facing Africa.
