Six employees from Maracom Limited, a firm of commercial heating engineers, completed the Three Peaks Challenge to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
Supported by colleagues and the supply of a fantastic new Volkswagen Transporter Shuttle Minibus for travelling between the peaks by Beadles’ Volkswagen van centre, Jo Tunbridge, Dean Bertie, Garry Connor, Chris Wood, Pat Lynch and Ted Birks completed the challenge in exactly 23 hours.
The team is now hoping online donations can help reach the target of £7,500; currently the total is just over £3,500.
Team leader and driver Pat Lynch said: “We’re delighted to have completed the event in under 24 hours and hope people can help us reach our target.
“The support from everyone at Maracom and partners including Beadles Volkswagen van centre have meant every penny raised is going to charity.
“There were a few blisters and tired legs at the end but plenty of smiling faces at our achievement.”
Beadles’ brand manager, Keith Banks, said: “It’s important we support local charity events and fundraising activity. This is a magnificent feat by the Maracom team and we’re pleased the loaned Transporter helped all donations go to charity.”
