Our team has decided to walk/ run/ cycle/ horse ride a total of 818 miles in September to fund-raise for Together for Short Lives.

We'll be using Strava to monitor our distance as a team and will provide updates on this page along the way. Our Team is Amicia Hardy, Amy Hodgson, Emma Whitehouse, Josh Grainge, Mandy Smith, Michael Anastasiou, Sarah Adams

The distance we have come up with - 818 miles - comes from the approximate distance if we were to lay all the mince pies we manufacture for Mr Kipling side by side. This distance has been split proportionately between the team members depending on their key forms of exercise (cyclists have a higher mileage target compared to walkers & runners).

We aim to complete the distance within the month of September. This is almost the same as travelling from John O'Groats to Lands' End!

Premier Foods have selected Together for Short Lives as their charity partner for 2020-2022. Both organisations share a belief of bringing families together to make moments to treasure. Together, we know we can help families make memories that will last a lifetime by raising vital funds for childrens hospice services across the UK.

When a child's life is expected to be short, there's no time to waste. Together for Short Lives is here to make sure the tens of thousands of seriously ill children and their families across the UK can make the most of every moment they have together, whether that's for years, months or only hours. We stand alongside families, supporting them to make sure they get the vital care and help that they need.
