Following our recent announcement that IMCD UK has chosen to support True Honour as our designated charity for 2023, we are pleased to say the fundraising is well and truly underway!
Last week, 49 staff members from IMCD UK embarked on an unforgettable journey through the picturesque countryside of the Surrey Hills for this year's annual charity walk. A further 11 team members scattered throughout the UK also took part in the challenge in their respective locations.
In 2022, the team took to the streets of London in a bid to walk 20km each in aid of Bowel Cancer UK. This year, the challenge was to walk a collective 1000km in support of True Honour, our chosen charity for 2023. We’re thrilled that the challenge distance and goal of raising £2000 were both exceeded, with the team collectively walking well over 1200km, raising a staggering £4,383 in the process!
Showcasing the natural beauty and serenity of the rural landscape, one of the defining moments was reaching the summit of Leith Hill, the second highest point in South East England, towering 300 metres above sea level, offering views all the way to the coast.
True Honour is dedicated to combating honour-based violence and supporting victims. Their tireless work empowers individuals and communities to challenge harmful practices, providing vital resources and assistance to those affected. By participating in this year's charity walk, the IMCD UK team has made a significant contribution towards this noble cause.
IMCD UK is proud to support True Honour's mission and remains steadfast in its commitment to supporting charitable causes. The success of this year's charity walk is a testament to the generosity, determination, and unwavering dedication of our team and all those who supported us. By working together, we can create positive change and empower those in need, ultimately fostering a more compassionate and inclusive society.
Don’t forget, it’s not too late to donate. Please visit our GoFundMe page to make a donation.
