MORE than 2,000 PureGym members of staff have been taking part in different charity events as part of a relay finishing in Oxford on Thursday (June 23).

They are aiming to raise £300,000 for the British Heart Foundation and Mental Health UK by rowing, cycling, walking and dancing their way across the country for a week.

 

The Hearts & Minds relay will culminate at the gym’s branch in Saint Ebbe's Street, with different activities including a 5K cycle ride with Olympian Sir Chris Hoy, and a run finishing in the Roger Bannister Stadium.

Eighty per cent of the proceeds will go to the British Heart Foundation, with the remaining money going to Mental Health UK.
