Community Team Takes on 18-Mile Challenge to Raise Funds

Members of the Lowell team took part in the recent Great Leeds Walk, an 18-mile route across the city, to raise funds for Leeds Children’s Charity. The event saw team member Vicky Denton and colleagues come together to support children in Leeds by helping to provide opportunities and experiences for those who might otherwise miss out.

Team Effort and Challenge

Vicky Denton undertook the demanding 18-mile walk, which tested her endurance and determination. The challenge was not only a physical one but also an opportunity for the team to spend time together outside the workplace while contributing to a local cause.

Reflecting on the experience, Vicky said the walk was tough but rewarding, with the knowledge that their efforts would benefit children across Leeds making the challenge worthwhile.

Impact on Children in Leeds
