Colleagues set to hike Kilimanjaro for St Catherine’s Hospice

Workmates Andrew Livesey and Leona Smith have thrown down the gauntlet for their staff to undertake a challenge to raise money for their nominated charity for this year, St Catherine’s Hospice.

Andrew, managing director of Lantei Compliance Services, and sales director Leona are preparing to take part in a 10-day trip hiking up Mount Kilimanjaro next June.

Andrew said: “We are both excited but nervous to take on this challenging hike. Knowing that we are climbing up the tallest mountain in Africa for an excellent charity will give us the motivation to complete the hike and inspire our team to do what they can.”

Lantei Compliance Services, based in Preston, is supporting the Lostock Hall hospice through its Helping Preston initiative.

St Catherine’s senior fundraiser, Lynne Whittaker, said: “We are pleased to have been chosen as Lantei’s nominated charity and look forward to working together on some exciting fundraising activities. The management team taking on a challenge like Kilimanjaro to inspire their staff is a demonstration of their commitment and we can’t wait to see the results.”
