Knights Construction Director, Doug Wellington will be taking part in the ‘Llangollen Round Challenge 2018’ in a bid to raise funds for Cancer Research UK.
The challenge is a 33-mile circular hike which takes on all the summits in the beautiful Vale of Llangollen and takes place on the 2nd June.
Doug is certainly no stranger to taking on fundraising challenges of this nature. Back in September 2017, he was part of the Knights hiking team who completed the famous ‘3 Peaks Challenge’ – a huge task which saw Doug and the team successfully raise £2,900 for Teenage Cancer Trust by scaling Britain’s three tallest mountains all within 24 hours.
As his latest challenge draws closer, Doug says he enjoys pushing himself and testing his limits.
“I’m always interested in getting involved in events like this. I generally love being out in the countryside anyway for the scenery but if there’s a chance to be out there and testing myself against the terrain then I’m in my element.”
“As soon as I heard about the Llangollen Round Challenge, I entered straight away and thought it was also a great opportunity to raise some money for Cancer Research UK.”
