On Sunday, 19 May 2024, the Virteffic team proudly completed the 15-mile South Coast Charity Challenge, raising crucial funds for Jersey Mencap!Β
Starting at La Rocque at 8:30 AM, the journey was blessed with glorious sunshine and a refreshing breeze, setting the perfect tone for the day.Β
The South Coast Charity Challenge is a 15-mile walk stretching from La Rocque to Corbiere, offering participants a chance to experience the stunning coastal beauty of the area while supporting Jersey Mencap. The walk is not a race but a communal effort to raise funds and awareness for the charity, which is dedicated to supporting individuals with learning disabilities in Jersey.Β
The walk was demanding, but it was also a great opportunity for the team to spend time together outside of their virtual assistant roles and strengthen the team bond in ways that virtual meetings cannot replicate.Β
Weβre thrilled to have contributed to Jersey Mencap again this year,Β an organisation that plays a crucial role in the local community.
