Story

Each year the team at MSP take on a fitness challenge in the office to raise money for charity. In recent years, the team have climbed Mount Everest and Mount K2 on a treadmill, cycled to Scotland and back and even walked 2,500,000 steps.

This year, the team will be focusing on lifting. For 24 hours straight from 12pm on Thursday 14 December to 12pm on Friday 15 December, there will constantly be at least 2 members of the MSP team in the gym lifting weights. This will be a variety of different weights with the target to reach 1,000,000lbs in 24 hours. 1,000,000lbs is the equivalent to lifting 85 JCB's!

This year it's an exceptionally tough challenge as the team are motivated more than ever due to the charity funds are being raised for.

This year MSP will be fundraising for Forest Holme Hospice, a local hospice in Poole that is close to all of our hearts due to their recent care for Sam Thomas and his family.

About the charity

Forest Holme Hospice Charity was set-up to ensure that everyone in the local community affected by a life-limiting illness or bereavement gets the care and support they need, either at home or in our dedicated hospice facility. We need to raise £1M each year to deliver the highest level of care.
