Scarborough Globe Trotters Raise Charity Cash During Lockdown

An around the world journey, started during lockdown, is coming to an end in East Ayton today.

None of those involved have actually left the Yorkshire Coast but between them the team at Moneyweb have nearly clocked up enough miles to complete a circumnavigation of the globe.

Managing Director Paul Robinson says They've been running, cycling and horse riding to achieve the miles to raise funds for the Rainbow Centre

The team need to clock up 300 miles before midnight to complete the challenge.

Paul says they have all done a great job getting behind the challenge and have raised over £4000 for the Scarborough based charity.

They started the challenge in February and gave themselves just 80 days to complete the required 25,000 miles.

There is more information about their challenge on their Just-giving page. https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/moneyweb-ltd2

We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
