Barratt South Wales team to tackle tough Yorkshire three peaks challenge for charity

Workers from Barratt Homes South Wales are taking to the hills this year, in aid of Multiple Sclerosis Charity. A team of walkers from the housebuilder plans to climb the three tallest peaks in Yorkshire to raise money for a colleague who was forced to retire due to the sheer physical difficulties brought on by MS. “We know it’s going to be a gruelling challenge - but everyone is prepared to do their best to raise as much money as possible for this important MS charity,” said Linda Jones from Barratt.

“More than 100,000 people in the UK have MS. It is an unpredictable and different for everyone and MS Society understands what life can be like with the condition. The charity is there for sufferers through the highs, lows, and everything in-between. It’s a wonderful cause, and our challenge is made ever more poignant because it is specifically supporting one of our own colleagues.

“The more we can do to help make people aware of MS the better too. Our aim is to raise £300 - but we hope to surpass that if at all possible.”

The team consists of construction professionals from across Barratt South Wales - including office and construction site workers. To donate, please visit https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Barratt-Homes-South-Wales1
