Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

For the last few years your Brown Shipley Leeds Office team have supported the Leeds Children’s Charity who provide respite and a desperately needed break at Lineham farm for the most vulnerable and disadvantaged children of Leeds community as well as additional support and help for those children and their families. Experiences out of reach any other way for the children of our community they support.

Each year they run a Christmas Gift appeal which our team supports because we believe no child who believes should be left off Santa’s list purely due to circumstance or situation. 

This year as lockdown drags on (and on and on), we’ve challenged ourselves to see in the lengthening of the days via the physical challenge of running, walking and cycling to Lapland to fetch Santa’s spare sack ourselves.

It’s 2083 miles from Leeds to Lapland.

13 members of our team 

 6 weeks to complete our challenge 

Which averages just over  13 marathons a week between us!

The team comprises:

Andrew, Nick, 3 Davids, Phil, Tess, Katherine, Simon, Dom Victoria, Dan and James 

Please support us during this challenge to bring in the spring and help us get some much needed funds to the Leeds Children’s Charity who support some of the most disadvantaged children of our city. 

We’d love to get the 2021 Christmas gift appeal kick started with £2069 towards gifts for the children of Leeds. That’s £1 per mile. 

Please support our cause and encourage us to get out in this cold, wet weather, whatever the weather and run/walk/cycle the equivalent distance from Leeds to Lapland (without straying too far from our lockdown locality) and make a donation through Just Giving and share this with likeminded folks.
