LEW Electrical Distributors has committed to raising a minimum of \u00a31,000 for the Electrical Industries Charity in 2018.<\/h4>\n

Fundraising got off to a great start with LEW\u2019s generous staff donating \u00a3945 at their annual staff party last month (March).<\/p>\n

All of LEW\u2019s 11 branches will be taking part in fundraising events this year. The first LEW branch to get involved is Barnsley, whose staff will team up with several good willed customers to conquer the Yorkshire Three Peaks. Training has already begun for the Barnsley team as they prepare for the 24-mile walk, which includes 5,200ft of ascent.<\/p>\n

Fundraising for the Three Peaks challenge has got off to a great start with more than \u00a3430 already collected, taking LEW\u2019s accumulative total to over \u00a31,300 with plenty of fundraising activity still to come.<\/p>\n

Managing Director, Andy Johnson, said: \u201cThe EIC is a fantastic charity that puts a great deal back into the electrical industry to help families and individuals when circumstances have taken an unexpected turn and, in many instances, have life changing consequences.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe industry has provided LEW and its staff with so much over the years; knowing there is a charity there to support any of us and our industry friends in the hardest of times is a great comfort, and it\u2019s a cause we are more than happy to support.\u201d<\/p>\n
