Levy UK raises over £50,000 for ParalympicsGB
Abstract
Sports and entertainment hospitality provider Levy UK has announced that it has surpassed its £50,000 fundraising target for charity partner ParalympicsGB. The total currently stands at £52,584.

Almost 250 Levy employees took part in a five week, 43-leg, 1,000-mile relay visiting 50 Levy-catered partner venues spanning Scotland, England and Wales. Collectively the various Levy teams travelled 6,351 miles – 3,185 miles covered by bike, 139 miles running and 3,027 miles walking.

Jane Byrd, Levy lead in Wales and Levy ParalympicsGB charity lead, said: “We are thrilled and extremely proud to have completed this unbelievable journey and to have surpassed our £50,000 fundraising target.

“From the starting line to the finish, our Levy teams demonstrated extraordinary commitment, passion, and teamwork, embodying the spirit of unity and solidarity that defines both Levy UK and ParalympicsGB.”

The funds raised will be used to support disabled athletes to excel in their chosen sports. People can still show their support by donating to ParalympicsGB here.
