His team at Boots have always had great success in raising money for charity and when it came to Rob’s turn to nominate a charity, naturally, he chose to support Canine Partners. He inspired his colleagues Aileen, Muriel, Jen, Jilly, Emma, Lauren, Ryan, Graham and Cheryl to take on a month long challenge to raise vital funds to support our work.

Inspiring the team

“I have worked for the charity for many years and I have seen the impact our amazing dogs make to our partners in Scotland, I wanted to share that with my team at Boots and they were keen to support.”

Three million steps

The team set a challenge, collectively, to walk three million steps over a period of one month. This equates to walking the whole of the length of the British Isles and beyond!  Having had a lot of fun getting their families involved, including their much-loved four-legged friends, the whole team remarked how much better they felt after completing the challenge. Having increased their daily steps they felt better, both physically and mentally.  And they raised a brilliant £290, which Boots kindly match-funded.
