Story
Welcome to the team JustGiving page for The Langham, Melbourne & Sydney's Race to Hong Kong.
A virtual race of 7387 kilometres from The Langham, Melbourne to the Head Office in Hong Kong, with the aim of reaching the final destination in time to celebrate the 155th anniversary of the hotel on 10th June 2020.
A team of dedicated colleagues will walk, run and cycle, using their daily exercise time outdoors and also using treadmills and exercise bikes in their homes to complete the gruelling distance in time for the special date.
The money raised will go to two mental health charities: Lifeline which offers a 24-hour telephone crisis support service in Australia & HUMEN, a men's mental health charity offering online support sessions and the HUMEN Space opening in Sydney next month.
Thank you from us all for your support, we look forward to keeping you updated along the way and to welcoming you into the hotel to celebrate the achievement soon.
Stay well!
