Not only have we smashed our 22 in 22 fundraising target of raising £22,000 for charity in 2022, we have done so in October – two months ahead of schedule.

And we’ve not only passed our £22,000 target, we’ve passed £30,000, with the total currently standing at £37,435.82.

Our Walking Around the Wolds charity walk provided a massive boost to the campaign, bringing in a total of £20,343.

Walking Around the Wolds saw us walking the beautiful 79-mile Yorkshire Wolds Way national trail in seven groups with five charities being supported and around 90 staff members involved in the challenge.

The route from the Humber Bridge to Filey was chosen as the trail is celebrating its 40th anniversary and Smailes Goldie has acquired three North Yorkshire offices this year.

The idyllic trail meant all five offices were able to take part in this challenge. The teams had a lot of fun creating a team name and preparing for the walk.

Each team walked a different part of the route in support of its chosen charities.

The Audit Trail, Ag-Venture and Scrambled Legs walked for the British Heart Foundation while Red Hot Chilli Steppers walked for Mires Beck Nursery.

Team Penny Patrol chose to support PAUL for Brain Recovery, Ryedale Rovers supported Cancer Research UK and Scarborough Great Walkers walked for Scarborough Hospital, Urgent & Emergency Care Appeal.
