Story

The Torpedo team are taking on another 'Go the Distance Challenge' this May. 

We've split ourselves into two teams (Yellow and Blue), whoever gets in the most miles either walking or running, by the time the month is up wins bragging rights for years to come!

We've run a couple of these challenges before, and whilst they're brilliant for team moral and wellbeing, this time we wanted to do a little bit extra...

It's 1,483 miles from our office in Cassington, Oxfordshire to Kyiv in Ukraine. Our goal is to cover this distance over the next 31 days and raise money for the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal in the process.

Any donations are gratefully received. And don't forget to show your support for your favourite team in the comments with #TeamYellow or #TeamBlue 😊

I'm fundraising to support the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal. Heavy fighting, shelling and air strikes across Ukraine have had devastating consequences. Already, over two million people have fled their homes to escape intense conflict in Ukraine. Leaving behind loved ones, livelihoods and almost everything they own, they need shelter, food, and water. People are losing their homes and lives, essential services like water and healthcare have been hit and temperatures have dropped below zero. Please support my fundraiser to help reach those in urgent need in Ukraine and neighbouring countries. With your help we can support ActionAid and the DEC in scaling up their response and help families to stay warm and protect women and girls. - £10 could provide essential hygiene supplies for 1person for one month - £50 could provide blankets for 4 families to keep them warm - £100 could provide emergency food for 2 families for one month
