Rays of Sunshine Charity Hike

June 29, 2022

We’re excited to share that we will be participating in a charity hike on Sunday 11th September 2022 to raise both awareness and funds for our chosen corporate charity – Rays of Sunshine. Starting at Princes Risborough, we will follow the Ridgeway path taking in the three highest peaks in the Chilterns – Whiteleaf Cross, Coombe Hill and Ivinghoe Beacon.

 

Leading the team is avid hiker and our COO, Tracy Kingsnorth. Having broken her foot on a hike just shy of two months ago, she is back with a vengeance and hitting the countryside for a warmup hike in July. Sadly, her trusty sidekick Squiggle will be sitting this one out. Next up is Cape-Town native, Lauren Smithie, our Group Marketing Manager here at Bluebox for almost three years now. We are hoping that her years of hiking Table Mountain growing up will have prepared her well for this challenge. Our Irish newcomers Amy O’Donovan, Marketing & Team Assistant, and our Corporate Finance Manager, Kevin Windsor, will also be putting on their hiking boots to join the charity climb. At least if it rains, it won’t affect their hiking ability as they are well used to wet weather back in Ireland! The group are looking forward to taking in some scenic countryside views and hope that their efforts will see a decent amount raised for Rays of Sunshine.

 

Established in 2003, Rays of Sunshine Children’s Charity exists to brighten up the lives of children with serious or life-limiting illnesses aged between three and eighteen across the United Kingdom. They grant individuals wishes, hospital ward wishes and hosts outings and events for large groups of seriously ill children. From meeting their favourite celebrity to wanting to own an iPad, Rays of Sunshine work as hard as possible to try make all wishes come true

 

Unfortunately, Rays of Sunshine does not receive any government funding and therefore relies solely on the support of the public and companies. As our chosen corporate charity, it is a cause that is close to our hearts.
