Fusiliers team up for charities

-

STAFF at Bone & Payne Solicitors, Beardmore & Co Independen­t Financial Advisors and Pritchett & Co Accountant­s recently completed the Welsh Three Peaks Challenge.

They started at the foot of Pen y Fan in South Wales at 5.30am before moving onto Cadair Idris in Dolgellau and then Snowdon, completing the challenge shortly after 9pm, to support two local charities.

St David’s Hospice is a local charity, caring for local people, delivering specialist care to adult patients with advanced illnesses or those in need of end of life care and their families.

Also benefiting from the challenge will be Cuddles, another amazing local charity which raises funds for the Special Care Baby Unit at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd, Bodelwydda­n.

Gareth Tierney-Jones, Senior Partner at Bone & Payne Solicitors said ‘I am extremely proud of our staff and our colleagues from the other two firms who completed this challenge in aid of such worthy local causes’.

The team is also grateful to Alpine Travel of Llandudno who kindly supplied the transport to and from South Wales for those completing the challenge. ● Donations can still be made via the Virgin Money page below or in person at any of the three offices of Bone & Payne Solicitors at Llandudno, Colwyn Bay and Old Colwyn. https://uk. virginmone­ygiving.com/Team/Cuddlesfor­theHospice­Heroes ROYAL Welch Fusiliers past and present took to the football field to raise funds for two special causes.
