Staffs at Berrys Shrewsbury office are taking part in the Macmillan Coracle Relay World Championship Charity Coracle Race again this year on Friday, June 18.

Having narrowly missed winning the event last year the stakes will be high and team members Chris Jones, Steve Locke, John Cooke and Abi Rule are already in training to ensure they beat their previous performance.

"To take part each team needs to raise a minimum of £300 so we are looking for sponsorship to raise as much money as possible for Macmillan Cancer Support," said Abi Rule Undergraduate Practitioner at Berrys Shrewsbury office ..

"Over the past three years the event has raised £86,000 to support local people with cancer so all donations will be greatly appreciated."

The event takes place at Shrewsbury Pengwern Boat club with up to 48 teams of four competing to cross the River Severn and back four times in the shortest time. Teams from businesses and organisations across the county take part bringing their supporters to boost funds for this very worthy cause.

Sponsorship forms are available at Berrys' Shrewsbury office or contact Abi Rule on 01743 271697 or email abigale.rule@berrybros.com
