Story

An intrepid group of 21 Lee & Thompson staff are taking on the Lake District 6 Peaks Challenge  on Saturday 16 September in support of the Robes Project charity. Not for the faint-hearted, we will be traversing the Buttermere Horseshoe in a single day -- that is 14 miles with an overall ascent of about 5,800 feet (that's almost like climbing Mount Snowdon twice from sea level) stringing together 6 summits which curves around the head of the beautiful Buttermere valley. It will take a us an estimated 10-12 hours and untold amounts of blood, sweat and tears.

So it seemed like the perfect excuse to rustle up some sponsorship for Lee & Thompson's nominated charity for 2017, the Robes Project! This is a grassroots charity providing shelter, advice and warmth over the cold winter months to the homeless in South London. Please donate now to help us support this very deserving cause.
