Rod Ellis to take part in Lake District charity challenge with Brabners for Marie Curie Cancer Care
23/06/2011
Rod Ellis, Managing Director at Re Legal, will soon take part in a grueling charity challenge in the Lake District organised by solicitors from Brabners Chaffe Street. Rod will (hopefully) complete a 3.5 mile canoe across Derwent Water, a 31 mile bike ride, and a 7 mile hill walk on 2 July 2011 to raise money for Marie Curie, Brabners Chaffe Street's nominated charity for 2011.
Rod, who is tackling the longer route of the two available, commented: "I took part in the Brabners charity challenge last year and it is always a tough one. On a positive note, the event raised just under £10,000 last year for charity and we are hoping to raise something similar this year."
19 teams of 3 have entered the event this year, and the teams consist mainly of the firm's employees alongside their clients and contacts. Anybody wanting to wish Rod all the best and support Marie Curie can do so at http://www.justgiving.com/breakfastclub2011
