Story
Biosite’s around the world challenge will see Team Biosite walk, run and cycle an incredible 25,000 miles – that’s an average of more than 830 miles a week – to raise money for our charity partner Ronald McDonald House Charities. The route, spanning 30 weeks, will see us virtually visit our partners across the ASSA ABLOY Group in Stockholm, New Haven (Connecticut) and Willoughby (New South Wales) before travelling back to our head office in Solihull (England). We’re aiming to raise £2,500 – that’s 1p for every 10 miles completed. Can we do it? Follow our journey and see!
