Charity delays, but recognition will come

The staff will undertake the Ben Nevis charity trek later in the year.

A TREK up Ben Nevis to raise money for Star for Harris has been postponed due to the Coronavirus.

Twelve workers from NEWCo and two from AJ Engineering had planned to take on the challenge this month, however due to the current restrictions, the trek will take place later in the year.

Alan James had also planned to handover cheques to the three charities that the company raised money for during the 20th year celebrations, but again, this has been delayed.

Alan said: “It’s a pity that the trek and our cheque handover has been delayed, but under the circumstances, we have had to postpone these things. However, we will make sure that both these great efforts, get the recognition they deserve, once normal service resumes. We have made the payments to charities, but we will celebrate the handover at another time.”

A total of £5,647.00 which has been shared equally between Star For Harris, Marie Curie Moray and Diabetes Scotland (Moray branch).
