Southern Sheeting takes part in Trekfest 2021

A team from Southern Sheeting has hiked 50km across an SAS training ground for Trekfest 2021 to raise more than £6,000 for homeless charity Crawley Open House.

The colleagues walked across the Brecon Beacons earlier this month, opting for either the more challenging 50km route or the shorter 25km route, exceeding their initial £5,000 goal for donations.

The team included managing director Tony Hobbs, e-commerce manager Joanna Morfield, team leader Stephen McCullough, contracts assistant Liam O’Callaghan, HGV driver Ben Pellett and yard operative Will Clark.

Tony said: “As a family run roofing business, putting a roof over people’s heads is close to our hearts and when we saw the incredible work at Crawley Open House, we knew we wanted to help.

“During our visit, we learned homelessness affects some 240,000 people in the UK. It really can happen to anyone. We’re so pleased with the total we raised, and we can’t thank our supporters enough.”
