Wynnstay raises over £6,000 for farmers' charity
Over £6,000 has been raised by Wynnstay for the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution when 201 members of staff took part in a challenge to see how many times they could travel 644 miles, the distance between Wynnstay’s northernmost and southernmost stores.
In the north to south challenge, every member of Wynnstay was invited to see how many times they could walk, run, swim or cycle the distance virtually, while raising money for our nominated charity.
Supporting the needs of British farmers has always been important to Wynnstay, making RABI an obvious choice for a charity to fundraise for.
Most of our staff have personal connections with the farming community. If they don’t live on a farm, their family and friends do, so they genuinely understand and want to help alleviate the challenges faced by farming families.
Collectively during 2021 our team travelled 29,239 miles, which is the equivalent of travelling between Montrose and Helston 45 times.
