A very colourful BSS Industrial team rambled 23 miles around
Rutland Water's Nature Reserve to raise over £3,200 for
Rainbow Trust, exceeding their target by miles.
Two teams completed the sponsored trek on Saturday 17th July
2010, with each team member dressing up in a colour of the rainbow.
The 'Rambling for Rainbows' event was organised to raise money for
Rainbow Trust, BSS Industrial's current official partner
charity.
Sue Greatorex, Commercial Director for BSS Industrial, led one
of the teams on the day and commented: "Rutland Water is an iconic
local landmark and was the perfect spot for this year's fundraising
event. It was great to see family, friends and even suppliers
turning up on the day to support and participate in the event. We
received outstanding support from many of our suppliers for which
we are very grateful. Our friends and family were also very
generous and on behalf of the team I would like to thank everyone
who sponsored us."
BSS Industrial has supported the Rainbow Trust since 2007,
raising around £50,000 per year for each of the past three
years to help the charity continue to offer vital support to
families who have a child suffering from a life threatening or
terminal illness.
