Implementation Specialist Lewis Takes on 40-Mile Trek for Charity in Annual K2B Event

This weekend, on Saturday 11th May, our implementation specialist Lewis Hogarth is gearing up to tackle a formidable challenge: walking 40 miles from Keswick to Barrow as part of the renowned annual Keswick to Barrow (K2B) charity event. For Lewis, this venture transcends mere physical exertion but also embodies a deeply rooted desire to make a positive difference in the lives of others.

The K2B event, renowned for its charitable endeavours, raises vital funds for several local organisations and initiatives, ranging from healthcare to education and beyond. This year he will be walking for The Birchall Trust. Lewis’ participation underscores his commitment to giving back to the community and championing causes that resonate with his values.

"I see this as an opportunity to not only push and challenge myself, but also to contribute to a wonderful local charity", Lewis explains.

If you would like to follow Pentagull and support a great cause, please donate via the K2B website.

With processing capacity severely constrained, some councils have had to suspend collections, limit the number of cooling appliances residents can bring to HWRCs, or stop accepting them altogether. For residents, the message is simple: the rules have changed. For councils, however, changing the rules is only the beginning. They also need an effective way to communicate those changes to residents and manage what happens when people arrive at an HWRC
