The Ireland Order Fulfilment team are raising funds for a well-known Hull charity by collectively covering the distance from Hull to Dublin and back during March.
The nine-strong group will be walking, running, cycling and swimming 305 miles each way within the 31 days, logging all the miles completed by each member.
All the money raised will be donated to Dove House Hospice, a charity close to the hearts of people in Hull.
The team is made up of Sam Cassidy, Rachel Watson, Abbey Rimmington, Daniel French, Emily Forde, Lucy Swarbrooke, Richard Jones, Paddy Green and Jodie Gardiner.
As their roles involve working with customers in Ireland and they are based in the Hull office, they felt the distance challenge between the two offices was a great idea.
Sam, who is the Order Fulfilment Team Leader for Ireland, said: “We are hoping to hit the target within the month and raise as much as possible, both for a great cause and to do something which may benefit us all as individuals.
“Everyone in and around Hull knows someone who has been cared for by Dove House at a very difficult time in their life so we’re determined to build awareness for the charity and highlight how much they can impact the lives of those in need.
“We appreciate every possible donation and the backing of our team for the upcoming challenge.”
