Plymouth casino takes prt in 672 mile challenge for Carers Trust

The team at Grosvenor Casino Plymouth are dusting off their trainers and braving the winter cold to walk, run and cycle 672 miles for charity.

While the casino remains temporarily closed due to current lockdown restrictions, the team from the venue located on the High Street is helping to raise money for Carers Trust by completing the Grosvenor to Grosvenor Charity Challenge. 

Joining fellow Grosvenor Casino venues across the country, the charity challenge will see each individual team member walk, run and cycle the distance between Grosvenor’s northernmost and southernmost venues in Aberdeen and Plymouth.

The Grosvenor to Grosvenor Charity Challenge has been set up with the collective aim of raising £5,000 for Carers Trust, whilst also encouraging the team to stay active during lockdown. 

James Harvey, General Manager at Grosvenor Casino Plymouth, said: “The Carers Trust is an important charity close to our hearts. It delivers vital services within our community and we hope the team’s efforts will help to raise some much-needed funds whilst also helping us all to be a little more active for improving our own health and wellbeing.”

The Carers Trust is a UK charity that works to provide support for those who live with the challenges of providing unpaid care for a family member or friend who is ill, frail, disabled or has mental health or addiction problems. Financial donations are vital in supporting the charity’s efforts.
