On 10 August, the team at Hurst Doors sponsored and took part in the Dove House Hospice’s 12 mile Pub-to-Pub Walk through East Yorkshire. Hurst employees and 200 others participated in the walk.
The Pub-to-Pub Walk, which included stops at six local pubs along the way, was part of Hurst’s broader commitment to fundraising for Dove House Hospice, a statement said. Dove House Hospice is an East Yorkshire charity that provides care for individuals with life-limiting illnesses.
Hayley Barker, group head of marketing at Hurst, said: “Participating in the Pub-to-Pub Walk was a fantastic experience for everyone involved.
“It was a perfect blend of fun, camaraderie, and charity, all set against the backdrop of our beautiful East Yorkshire surroundings. We’re proud to support Dove House Hospice and contribute to the incredible work they do.”
Earlier this year, the Hurst team also took part in the charity’s Get Caked event and the Hull 10K. To date, Hurst stated that it has raised over £2,000 and continues to work toward its goal of £2,500 by the end of 2024.
Jonny Bottomley, partnership development fundraiser at Dove House Hospice, added: “The dedication and enthusiasm of the Hurst team are truly inspiring.
“Their participation in events like the Pub-to-Pub Walk plays a vital role in helping us provide essential care to those who need it most. We can’t thank them enough for their continued support.”
Hurst’s next challenge, the Fire and Ice Challenge, is set to take place in October. Members of the team will be walking over hot coals and cut glass. All funds raised from this and other events will directly support Dove House Hospice’s services.
