Brabners sets an epic Charity Challenge in aid of Alder Hey Children’s Charity

Brabners has announced its plans to raise money for Alder Hey Children’s Charity with a marathon paddle, cycle and hike across the Lake District.

Lawyers from Brabners have organised their intensive Charity Challenge which will see them take on rival teams made up of clients and contacts in the full day event in aid of the firm’s nominated charity for 2015, Alder Hey Children’s Charity.

The Charity Challenge starts with canoeing on Derwentwater Lake before cycling over 30 miles to Buttermere and back via the Honister Pass (1,167 ft) and the Whinlatter Pass (1,043 ft) and finishes by scaling the Coledale Horseshoe on foot, all inside 12 hours. There is a shorter route which involves canoeing, cycling over 20 miles and ends with a 5 mile hill walk.

The Charity Challenge has raised a mammoth £73,000 for various charities since it began in 2005.

The event takes place on Saturday June 13 and is supported by Leisure Lake Bikes.
