Dannika Set For Celtic FC Foundation's Ben Nevis Huddle
LIFELONG Celtic fan, Dannika Drain has participated in a variety of fundraising activities with Celtic FC Foundation over the past five years. From travelling to Malawi, to walking on fire, her commitment to supporting the work of the Foundation has been a constant.
Next up for Dannika will be Celtic FC Foundation’s 2018 Ben Nevis Huddle, as she prepares to take on the challenge once again, having previously scaled Britain’s highest mountain back in both 2013 and 2014.
Dannika spoke of her involvement with Celtic FC Foundation and her excitement ahead of the Ben Nevis Huddle.
She said: “This will be the third time I’ve taken on the Ben Nevis Huddle, having participated in the first two years. The 2013 Huddle was actually the first fundraising event for Celtic FC Foundation that I took part in.
“When I was 17 I was in a bad car accident and I wasn’t sure if I’d actually walk again. Thankfully I made a full recovery and when I first saw the Ben Nevis Huddle advertised on the big screen at Celtic Park, I thought it would be a great way for me to challenge myself and prove that I could do it.
