Ring team takes on the
Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge to raise money for charity
To
raise money for Cancer Research’s Business Beats Cancer, a charity very
important to many people at Ring, the team has decided to brave the Yorkshire Three
Peaks challenge on 14th September.
More than
15 team members at Ring are taking part in the Three Peaks challenge in
Yorkshire, which will see them climb the peaks of Pen-y-Ghent (694 metres), Whernside (736
metres) and Ingleborough (723 metres), all of which need to be
completed within 12 hours. Overall, the challenge will see the team take on
40km of walking and 5,200ft of ascent.
The
company has set up a dedicated fundraising page for anyone who wants to donate: Team Ring Automotive (cancerresearchuk.org) The team hope to raise at least £5,200, so any
donations would be greatly appreciated by all.
Marketing Director
for Ring, Henry Bisson, said: “I’ve decided to join in on this Three Peaks
challenge because it’s raising money for a fantastic cause and it’s also a
great opportunity to challenge myself and the team as a whole. The Yorkshire Three
Peaks challenge is just that – a challenge, and the staff at Ring were eager to
take it on. It’s going to be a long and difficult day, but we’ll definitely be
encouraging each other to get through it.
“The Business Beats Cancer is a brilliant
initiative that we as a company are happy to support, so we’re trying to raise
as much money as we can, so any amount donated will be incredible.”
