BDO Reading climbs 'Everest'!

Hello All, BDO Reading will be climbing the 14 floors of our Reading 170 times in a day in order to raise money for a very worthy cause, the Berkshire Community Foundation. The Foundation provides grants and funds to the local charities within Berkshire, identifying the needs of the community to make sure the money is used as effectively as possible. Their mission is to inspire philanthropy and charitable giving; connecting people, ideas, resources and needs to make a lasting difference in Berkshire. And we certainly want to help with this! We have calculated the change in altitude from the ground floor to the top of the stairs at the 14th floor as 52.15m so will be climbing the stairs 170 times over the course of the day, an altitude of over 8865m (Mount Everest is a mere 8848m!). Over 40 people will be taking part climbing the stairs between 1 and 5 times (no mean feat at the best part of 300 stairs per climb!). Please donate whatever you can for this amazing charity, this will really help motivate us when those thighs and legs are burning! Thank you from everyone at BDO Reading
