MERLYN raise £7,949 for the Pink Ribbon Foundation A
team from MERLYN and VADO completed the gruelling Derbyshire
Three Peaks Challenge on October 15th and raised £7,949 (and counting) in support of the Pink Ribbon Foundation. The fundraiser, which was completed during Breast Cancer Awareness Month is part of MERLYN’s longstanding partnership with the charity. The challenge comprised a 21-mile circular hike
and included the summiting of Derbyshire’s three highest peaks. The team completed this in under 10 hours and received over 240 donations, smashing their initial target of £5,000. The Pink Ribbon Foundation is a grant-making
trust that provides financial support to UK Breast Cancer charities that help people affected by breast cancer, as well as charities advancing
understanding of the disease and furthering early detection research and treatment. Many of the charities that the Pink Ribbon Foundation support are smaller organisations that operate with limited resources, so donations from the Pink Ribbon Foundation are crucial to ensuring they can provide aid to those in need. MERLYN have been proud partners of the
Pink Ribbon Foundation since 2019 and have carried out many fundraisers to raise money. This includes the donating of £25 from the sale of every ARYSTO X shower enclosure to the foundation. This was announced alongside a one- of-a-kind pink shower installation in Birmingham earlier this year. The shower served as a reminder to introduce regular breast self-checks into your showering routine – an easy, but potentially life- saving practice.
The climbers who participated in the challenge
were Sean Collins, Gary Hildrow, David Brunt, Eileen Slattery, Scott Anderson, John Stacey, Damian Fitzpatrick, Jeff O’Donoghue, Alex Martin, Ross Moore, Rhys Higgins, Denise Walker, John Laker, Lee Andrews, Adam Thresher, Daniel Gold, Paul Barrack, Richard Collins and Lee Daley. Eileen Slattery, Marketing Director at MERLYN
comments “It is always a privilege to raise funds for the Pink Ribbon Foundation and an honour to complete the Three Peaks Challenge alongside my wonderful colleagues. It’s been a tough day but a great day, and we are grateful for such generous support from our industry friends.”
