Story
Ian Williams is celebrating a significant birthday this year – we are 75 years old! To mark the occasion the entire business is taking part in the IW75 in 75 Mission, with the aim of raising £75,000 for The Trussell Trust, a charity that provides emergency food and support to people locked into poverty.
From 1 April, individuals from across the business will be gathering virtually to embark on our most ambitious fundraising event ever. The objective is for three teams from across the business to travel around the globe virtually clocking up the miles over 75 days by running, cycling, walking, swimming and fitness classes with all efforts logged on Strava, Fitbit, Apple Health and Garmin.
It’s an ambitious project but one that we hope will be fun to do, emphasise Ian Williams’ commitment to wellbeing, bring out the competitive edge in people and ultimately, raise a lot of money to help end the need for the UK’s foodbanks.
We in IW's Commercial & Procurement Team will be doing our bit and have set a team target of contributing at least 2,000 miles to the global journey and by doing so hope to raise £500 towards the company target of £75,000. Obligatory unflattering photos of progress to follow!
