Members of the team at Securistyle, the well-established manufacturer of quality, innovative hardware for the window industry, are, with some trepidation, limbering up in training, to trek a massive 50 miles around the Pennines on the Lancashire/Yorkshire border. What’s more, they will be undertaking this feat in under 24 hours as part of the Trek50 challenge.
The challenge takes place on the 22nd- 23rd of June, and, while the route is a scenic one, it does feature climbs which total more than 2,400m – that’s the equivalent to climbing both Ben Nevis and Snowdon. It is worth all the hard work being put in by the team however, as all proceeds go to MedEquip4Kids, a charity which aims to improve the health of children and babies by providing equipment that would otherwise be unable from NHS resources. In the last 27 years, MedEquip4Kids has raised more than £12 million, which has helped some 79,000 children each year.
Glyn Jones, Sales Manager for Securistyle comments: “We have all been training hard and are looking forward to taking part in the Trek50 challenge. It’s a very worthy cause and we hope that people will dig deep and support us. We look forward to keeping everybody updated on our progress.”
