Loans Warehouse gets active for charity

Loans Warehouse are running and cycling for charity for the second year running.

A running machine and bike have been delivered to their Watford offices so they can complete a 441 mile journey throughout January for three children's hospitals.

The journey starts at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London, then heads north stopping at Alder Hey Children's Hospital in Liverpool.

The journey ends in Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow.

Matt Tristram, co-founder at Loans Warehouse, said: “Last year we wanted to do something in January to offset the excess of Christmas.

"We all wanted to burn a few calories but wanted to make it a challenge.

"Aaron Griffiths, our head of underwriting, came up with the idea of running to all of our lenders on a treadmill and we created the Finchley to Newcastle route that so many saw last year on LinkedIn and Twitter.

"In doing so, and with the generosity of our partners and hard work of the team, we raised over £2000 to sponsor a row of kennels at our local dog shelter.

"This year we are going further and hope that many more will get involved to support this year’s charities with donations and by joining us running.

"We will be running and cycling to three amazing children’s hospitals, and with the permission and support of all three charities, we have set up a Just Giving page.

"Our progress can also be tracked on the Loans Warehouse social media accounts.”

Loans Warehouse are aiming to raise £5000.
