Following the success of its seven mile Royal Parks Walk in June, Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd took on its most ambitious charity challenge of the year: The KM Ultra Walk, a 28-mile endurance event, in support of Cancer Research UK.
The Ultra Walk was the second of two sponsored events Konica Minolta has organised this year in partnership with Challenge Central, reinforcing the company’s commitment to creating positive social impact and supporting the communities it serves. While the first walk brought colleagues together for an accessible, inclusive challenge, the Ultra Walk gave participants the opportunity to push themselves further and make an even greater fundraising impact.
Starting in Epping, the 28-mile largely flat route took in peaceful sections of the Thames Path, Victoria Park, Granary Square and finished at St Pancras. The route took walkers through a full day challenge designed to test stamina, teamwork and determination.
Gillian Nuttall, ESG partner at Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd, comments:
“The energy and generosity shown during our Royal Parks Walk in June was truly inspiring, and [the] Ultra Walk gives us another opportunity to come together for a cause that matters deeply to so many. This challenge is about resilience, teamwork and the belief that every mile brings us closer to breakthroughs in cancer research. We’re incredibly proud of everyone taking part and grateful to all who support our fundraising efforts.”
