McCartneys going up Snowdon

 
03/06/2016 @ 12:07

Staff at McCartneys estate agents are taking to the mountains again to raise money for MacMillan Cancer Support and this time they plan to tackle Snowdon.

“About 18 months ago we took the decision to start supporting a charity for the year,” said Tom Carter, a partner. “2015 saw us raising money for the Wales Air Ambulance with our main event being a sponsored walk up Pen Y Fan in the Brecon Beacons and we raised over £700 for this extremely worthy cause.

“This year we have decided to raise funds for MacMillan Cancer Support, a cause close to many of our hearts here in McCartneys.

“It is quite amazing when you get talking to colleagues within McCartneys just how many people have been affected by cancer one way or another, both directly and indirectly.

“Perhaps this shouldn’t come as such a surprise, as when you look at the figures MacMillan Cancer Support suggest that in 2015 an estimated 2.5 Million people had received some form of Cancer diagnosis, a staggering figure,” said Tom.

“Our main event this year will be stepping things up a little from last year’s effort with a sponsored walk up Snowdon, with a team from McCartneys scaling the mountain on Sunday, June 26.

“Those participating will be seeking some sponsorship and we also have a just giving page set up www.justgiving.com/McCartneys-Climb-Snowdon 

“Any support that you can give us to help raise funds for MacMillan would be hugely appreciated or if you would like to join us on the 26th June you would be very welcome.”
