ALTRINCHAM-based Jefferies Solicitors has boosted two charities – by conquering the Three Peaks Challenge and Race for Life’s Pretty Muddy.

Jefferies Solicitors HAS raised nearly £1,500 in June for the Children’s Adventure Farm Trust (CAFT) and Cancer Research.

Solicitor Michael Mawdsley took part in the National Three Peak challenge, scaling the UK’s highest mountains, Ben Nevis (1,344m), Snowdon (1,085m) and Scafell Pike (978m) in under 24 hours, raising £1,000 for CAFT.

And an eight-strong team, led by director Nina Ramsden, tackled Race for Life’s Pretty Muddy at Tatton Park in Knutsford. Joining thousands of women dressed in pink from across the North West, the group ran the 5km obstacle race for Cancer Research.

Nina said: “Michael did a great job completing the Three Peak Challenge in 22 hours 50 minutes and raising £1,000 for CAFT – our chosen charity at Jefferies Solicitors.

“Following on from our running success last year, we once again took part in Pretty Muddy to show our commitment to Cancer Research. We’re proud to get involved in such a worthwhile charity – it’s one that remains close to our hearts.”
