Dupli walks for Alzheimer’s Research UK
Posted on Aug 18, 2023
The longstanding partnership between Dupli and Alzheimer’s Research UK continues as the company are tackling a treacherous walking challenge
The Leicester-based business are set to take on the Edale Skyline Challenge this September. The challenge winds a 20-mile route along the ridge of Edale in the Peak District, crossing the skyline of Edale and Hope Valley. The team will tackle inclines and declines, putting their legs to the test. On a clear day, you can spot Ladybower Reservoir, Edale Rocks, Mam Tor and the ridge walk, Noe Stool and Kinder Scout Low. The challenge specifies the route must be covered in less than 10 hours and includes an overall ascent of 4500ft.
Dupli continues its commitment to the cause, raising urgently needed funds for ARUK. Dupli Hr & people officer, Claire McCreery elaborates: ‘Following on from out localised litter picking event, 10k wolf run and virtual cycle, we hope this event encourages the industry to continue to support us in our efforts to raise awareness for this debilitating condition.’
Dupli remains the leading supplier into the UK photographic print industry, and vows to illustrate how important the role photographs play in rehabilitation therapy.
