Evans Accountants team to walk 1,000 miles in June

By Evans Accountants

02 Jun 2021

 

Today is the day that we lace up our boots and get walking - all to raise funds for two fantastic charities:

Ribble Valley Breast Friends

Barry Kilby Prostate Cancer Appeal

We'd really, really appreciate any assistance you can offer to help raise funds - by means of sponsorship and/or sharing details on social media!

The Challenge

Each of us will walk as much as possible throughout the month to reach our target distance. 1,000 miles may not sound like much... but it averages out at over 4 miles per team member per day, which is surprisingly challenging (you miss a few days and the average rockets up)!

We'll all record our walks on Strava and you can keep an eye on our progress via our 1000 Mile Fundraiser page!

Our aim is to raise at least £1,000 - which will be split between our two charities.

Please sponsor us if you can! https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/evansaccountants

The Charities

Ribble Valley Breast Friends is a support group for women living with or beyond breast cancer. The group offers an opportunity to talk to others in a similar situation and it provides access to art therapy sessions, complementary therapies, psychotherapy and information on all aspects of dealing with breast cancer.     Founded in 2014, The Barry Kilby Prostate Cancer Appeal focusses on awareness of, and encouraging people to get checked for, prostate cancer. They hold simple PSA blood testing events, which they hold at local sports grounds. Men don’t always go to their doctor, but they’ll visit a football ground, and that’s why they base their events in these locations
