Vigilance To Tackle Trailwalker 2012

As one of our charitable initiatives this year the company has entered Trailwalker 2012.

Trailwalker is an annual event in aid of Oxfam and the Gurkha Welfare Trust, that originally grew out of a regimental challenge in Hong Kong and has since grown to become an international sporting challenge.

On 14th July this year the Vigilance team decided to skip storming the Bastille in favour of competing against 500 other teams of four to conquer the 100km from Petersfield to Brighton following the South Downs Way.

Trailwalker is not a challenge to be taken lightly but blood, sweat and toil will yield its own rewards. Not least, we have set ourselves an ambitious fund raising target of £2,500 which Vigilance will match (at least). We very much hope that you consider giving a small donation, be it corporate or personal to help us to achieve a truly impressive target.

The link to our Virgin Money Giving page follows. Why them? Specifically because they charge the lowest fees at a flat two per cent, leaving our chosen charities the biggest possible slice of the pie!

Oxfam are the major sponsor of the 2012 event, but a key beneficiary is the Gurkha Welfare Trust. This is a cause close to our hearts and those of the men that serve us so diligently.

We need all the help we can get, why not support us as the rain sheets down? Or for more information on Trailwalker from the comfort of your armchair please visit the official site:
