NHS Charities Together and its members across the UK are hugely grateful for the support received from so many since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Story

All of us at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines are missing the sense
of normality that cruising in a healthy world brings. Those who are still
working are missing their colleagues who are currently on furlough leave, and
the furlough team are missing those who are working from home. What we also
have in common is that we are all indebted to our wonderful NHS, who are
working incredibly hard to combat Covid-19.

We wanted to do something to bring us together as a team
again, working towards a shared goal as we always have, although this time it
is to raise as much money for the NHS as we can.

We can’t cruise just now, but that can’t stop us
‘travelling’ across our wonderful planet. So over the next few weeks and using
our one hour of daily exercise, together with our families we will be walking,
running, cycling and swimming (for those of us lucky enough to have a pool!)
around the world.

How long will it take us? We don’t know. But what we do know
is that together, as one united team, we can remember all that is great about
travel and cruise.
