A children’s cancer charity has thanked colleagues at a south coast property finance specialist for staging an ‘incredible’ 12-hour fundraising triathlon.
More than half of the team members at MSP Capital ran, cycled and rowed in a continual collective challenge in aid of Young Lives vs Cancer.
Together they covered an equivalent distance of 330 miles using a treadmill, static bike and rowing machine at their Poole office.
Among those cheering them on as they raised a total of £6,800 was Liz Blunt from Young Lives vs Cancer.
Liz said: “It was absolutely wonderful to come by the office and meet the fantastic staff. A massive thank-you to them.
“As a charity, we provide emotional and physical support to young people who have been diagnosed with cancer, and we help their families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them.
“The amount raised will make such a difference as we don’t receive government funding.
“We only have our work made possible thanks to supporters such as MSP Capital.
“The aim of the fund is to help those families who are struggling with rising cancer costs amid the cost-of-living crisis.”
The triathlon was organised by members of MSP Capital’s community committee.
