CUBE HR Surpasses Fundraising Goal, Raising Over £2,100 for Advocacy Focus 

Earlier this month, the team at CUBE HR exceeded their fundraising goal by more than double when they took on the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge in order to raise vital funds for Advocacy Focus.

During this challenge, they walked 24.5 miles, climbed 5,000 feet, and took around 55,000 steps – finishing it in 8 hours 57 minutes. 

“We love a challenge and most of us love walking, so we thought why not combine them” said Lisa Sourbutts, Managing Director at CUBE HR. “I think we underestimated how challenging it would be. We completed the first 2 peaks relatively easily but one of the team ended up with blisters on the soles of her feet. However, she would not give up so we took the 3rd peak (Ingleborough) quite slowly. That said we’re told under 9 hours is a phenomenal time so we’ll take it. The celebratory pint at the end didn’t touch the sides. We were sore and tired but when we checked the total we had raised we were delighted. Thanks so much to our generous supporters” 

In April, it was announced that CUBE HR had chosen Advocacy Focus as their charity of the year, choosing to dedicate their fundraising efforts to support Advocacy Focus in providing valuable advocacy services across Lancashire.  

“We are honoured to have been chosen as CUBE HR’s charity of the year, and what a fantastic way to kickstart their fundraising! The Yorkshire Three Peaks is no mean feat, but every step they took was a step towards making sure that local people get the advocacy support they deserve for their care and treatment needs. Huge thanks to Team Cube. You are all amazing!” says Justine Forster, CEO at Advocacy Focus.
