Story
Two teams from Kreston Reeves will be attempting to walk for 24 hours on 24th- 25th June. One team on the South Downs Way and one on the North Downs Way. The aim is to walk as far as possible in 24 hours, competing against the other team for the furthest distance.
Both routes are full of challenges with varying levels of difficulties at night. The walk requires a significant amount of training, and the teams are working hard to make sure they are ready. The reason we are doing this is that we would love our friends, family and network to donate to our Kreston Reeves Foundation which supports our charities of the year. Each office chooses a local charity and this year we are supporting:
- East Kent Hospitals Charity – raising funds for wards and services provided by East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust
- Air Ambulance Kent Surrey Sussex – providing world-class, fast-response, emergency medical care
- Breast Cancer Care Kent – improving lives for those diagnosed with breast cancer in Kent
- Honeypot – offering respite breaks and outreach support to young carers
- West Sussex Mind – supporting people with their mental health
- Ferring Country Centre – providing training and work experience to people with learning disabilities
- Aldingbourne Trust – supporting people with learning disabilities to reach their potential across Sussex
- Whoopsadaisy – providing conductive education to children with physical disabilities
You will see that there are variety of different charities, all equally deserving of our support and as a result we hope to make our local communities a better place to live. Please give generously to reflect the hard work being committed by our team members:
