This weeks exciting news story is coming straight from 6 of the lovely ladies in our NE head office!

On Saturday 13th May they are all off to take part in a charity walk across the Northumberland Coast on behalf of the Veterans In Crisis, a Sunderland based charity which predominantly works towards helping ex-forces men or women, who are struggling with life post service, to get back on their feet. If you are familiar with this page, you’ll know we are keen supporters of this charity and it is close to our hearts! The 6 ladies from our office are giving up their spare time to complete this walk and help fundraise for this hugely important cause.

They will be walking from Beadnell across to Seahouses and back kitted out in Veterans In Crisis T-Shirts along the way, raising awareness and hopefully a few pennies on their journey!

Veterans In Crisis not only supports ex forces members, but in certain circumstances also offer support to the families of the bereaved who lost their lives serving in the armed forces.

The sort of help they offer varies and comes in many different forms, including working in partnership with Springboard, Gentoo and Engie to provide first class training to clients looking to get back into employment. VICS also have their own in-house councilor who is readily available to chat to any ex-veteran or family member who needs to chat.

Please join us in wishing our North East Ladies the best of luck in their fundraising, we hope you reach your goal – and if any of our fantastic LinkedIn followers would like to support this brilliant cause, please get in touch via help.desk@ascendantlifts.co.uk to make a donation, even the smallest gesture is appreciated!
