Welcome to the charity and community work update 2025! This will give you an update on what we have been up to this year, how much we have raised, what is still to come plus our new cumulative total since our records started in 2012.
Let's jump in!
Walking Challenge 2025
Walk the distance from Lands End to John O'Groats
What started out as a challenge from our Managing Director Kevin Kent, to attempt to walk the equivalent distance between our Mansfield to East Kilbride offices (approx. 260 miles), by walking laps of the estate in your breaks quickly had to be revised, as that total was smashed within a few weeks.
The new distance of equivalent of Lands End to John O'Groats was set (874 miles) and I can confirm that you all have now broken even this total completing approx. 1000 miles combined.
A truly great achievement and to celebrate the company will be matching that pound for pound and donating £1000 split between Prostate Cancer Research and Alzheimer's Society.
Proud Sponsor of
