Story

Resolis staff are taking part in several events across the UK to raise funds for charity!

My chosen charity is Cancer Research as, like everyone I know, cancer has impacted on people near and dear to me. I lost my father and, more recently my father-in-law to this awful disease. I have had school friends and university friends affected and when Resolis offered to match fund donations the opportunity to participate was too great to miss. 

The Kiltwalk is a well established event which has raised over £37m since 2016 and my leg involves a 21 mile wander round Edinburgh. 

Who knows.....if I raise enough donations I may even wear a kilt...

Thanks to you all for reading (and hopefully donating!)

I promise to keep you posted on progress as I am sure at least a few of you will have doubts if I can complete my first sponsored walk since 1st year in St. Colmans back in 1987 !!
