MacMillan

We are keen to support MacMillan with their ability to provide grants for those people diagnosed while in financial difficulty. The fund is designed to help reduce money worries while people are dealing with prospect of prolonged cancer treatment.

Chris Cartledge, one of our Account Managers, decided he wanted to help. With personal experience of the amazing support MacMillan provides, he decided he wanted to raise money. Most people would run a 5k or complete a charity walk, not Chris. He came up with a massive challenge. He would use a static rowing machine to row the equivalent of Manchester to London in the 31 days of January. 

Every morning without fail, he rowed 10 kilometres until eventually, sore and exhausted, he completed the 310,000 metres he needed to finish.
