Travis Perkins completes 200km charity fundraiser

Two Travis Perkins colleagues, Eddy Webb and Brian Kemp, have completed a combined 200km running and cycling challenge, undertaking 100km each to raise money for Alzheimer’s Society, the business’ chosen charity.

The pair from the Chipping Norton branch on Station Road raised just under £3,000 for the charity, with Webb, 32, running 100km in a day, and Kemp taking to the Cotswolds hills on his bike to complete his 100km cycle.

Speaking after completing his run, Webb said: “I have run a long way before, but when I set myself this challenge, I knew how difficult it was going to be, and it certainly did not disappoint from that perspective.

“I felt completely exhausted after it, but ultimately it was for a great cause in Alzheimer’s Society, and it ended up being such a good day for everyone at the branch. I am so grateful to all those who supported both Brian and me throughout the day.”
