Two of Pulford Publicity’s directors, Ben and Louis Pulford, will be taking on the challenge of scaling Dorset’s three peaks whilst walking a marathon in one day, in support of the company’s charity of the year, Diverse Abilities.
Diverse Abilities is Dorset’s disability charity, supporting adults and children with profound physical and learning disabilities. As with many charities, the pandemic has taken its toll on fundraising over the past year, so the organisation is looking forward to getting people together to take up a challenge and add some much-needed funds to the coffers.
During the event, Ben and Louis will trek to the top of Lewesdon Hill, Pilsdon Pen and Bulbarrow Hill, covering a marathon distance of 26.2 miles across the Wessex Ridgeway and ascending more than 1,530m in a single day – that’s taller than Ben Nevis.
Both are looking forward to the challenge, and feel that now is the right time as they have been taking advantage of the opportunity to walk during lockdown.
