Sign up to walk the West Highland Way in 2018 in aid of the Furniture Makers

Has overindulging during the festive season already left you feeling in need of some much needed exercise?

The Furniture Makers’ Company, the furnishing industry’s charity, invites you to join them and 2 Rifles, the Company’s military affiliate, on a 100 mile sponsored trek of the West Highland Way in 2018.

The fundraiser will take place from 21-26 April and see 15 participants walk 15-30km per day as they make their way from Milngavie in Greater Glasgow and finish at Fort William – the gateway to Ben Nevis.

The cost of participating will be £350 per walker with meals and accommodation provided. Each person will have to commit to raising a minimum of £1,000 for the charity. Sponsorship opportunities are also available.

Jonny Westbrooke, CEO of The Furniture Makers’ Company, said: “The West Highland Way walk is perfect for anyone looking to undertake a challenge in 2018 or simply shed a few unwanted pounds following the revelry of Christmas.

“We are absolutely delighted that it will be supported by 2 Rifles, which will give an excellent opportunity for participants to meet with soldiers, get fit and raise funds for their industry charity.”
