A law firm with offices in Bath has announced ambitious plans for a 130-mile sponsored walk with the aim of raising £20,000 for charity.

RWK Goodman will be raising money for Centrepoint, Sobell House, Swindon Food Collective and Bath-based charity Trauma Breakthrough.

The ‘Step Ahead Challenge’ will see employees walking the distance between their Bath and London offices, over 10 working days from 12th-23rd September.

Offices of RWK Goodman in Bath, London, Oxford and Swindon have respective charities they raise money for all year round.

The firm previously did the challenge in 2018, when 130 employees participated in the walk and raised over £17,000.

Sophie Webb, chair of the charities committee at RWK Goodman, said: “The 2018 event was incredibly successful. As well as raising almost £18,000 for our chosen charities, we found that the event itself was extremely inclusive and we wanted to embrace that.

“Walkers don’t have to be super athletic to take part; it’s a challenge that many across the firm feel they can participate in.”

Donations can be made through the fundraising page here.
