A Falmouth based Digital Marketing Agency is taking on the huge task of travelling the distance from Land's End to John o' Groats, partnering with Community Heart (Falmouth) to help raise money to open a community Fundraising Shop and Hub.

Throughout June, the 3WhiteHats team set themselves a group task to complete the South West Coast Path by either walking, running, cycling and paddleboarding the full 627 miles.

The team decided that this was actually a warm-up task for an even bigger challenge - to complete Land's End to John o' Groats.

Tom Telford, Managing Director at 3WhiteHats told Nub News:

"With the team working remotely or on furlough, we really wanted to find a way to all do something together that also benefits our local community. COVID-19 has had such an impact on us all, especially the most vulnerable.

"Being able to do a virtual team challenge, whilst raising funds that will make a difference, has been great for everyone 3WhiteHats."

The team started on 17th July and will finish on 16th August.

The 3WH team is made up of 18 people who will be completing the challenge any way they can by logging their mileage on Strava, you can follow their progress by clicking here.

What is the goal? 3WhiteHats added:

"As this is quite a big challenge, we have joined up with Community Heart (Falmouth) to help raise money to open a community Fundraising Shop and Hub; with a Community Fridge and to set up and sustain the Falmouth Community Orchard.

"They have been doing some incredible work during the Covid-19 pandemic by supplying emergency food boxes to the most vulnerable people in our community and as businesses have started reopening they have turned their focus back on to their original project. Our target fundraising amount is £1,000 - £1 for every mile."
