Wigan bed shop staff complete Tough Mudder to raise money for a local children’s hospice

The team from Pemberton-based Land of Beds conquered the 15km Tough Mudder course including 31 difficult obstacles all while generating funds for Claire House.

Their journey began with a shared purpose – to give back to their community in a profound way by completing a challenging course – a test of endurance that pushes the limits of even the fittest individuals to their limits.

The course included spine-chilling challenges such as the Arctic Enema ice bath and the mud-soaked Mud Mile. Yet, with unwavering determination and infectious smiles, these dedicated fund-raisers conquered every obstacle.

By completing the fund-raiser, they enable Claire House in Liverpool to continue providing support and vital care to children and families facing severe illnesses.

Their incredible efforts did not go unnoticed. Friends, family, and supporters rallied behind them, contributing generously to reach a total of £4,675. This substantial sum will make a profound difference in the lives of the children and families under Claire House Hospice's care.

CEO Mike Murray expressed immense pride and gratitude for the team's achievement and said: "Our team's dedication to conquering Tough Mudder and supporting a worthy cause speaks volumes about their spirit, teamwork, and commitment to our community. Land of Beds is more than just mattresses and bed frames; we're deeply committed to our community through various charitable initiatives.

"Our unwavering dedication to community well-being, whether through bed donations, event sponsorship, product contributions, volunteering, or fundraising, remains a cornerstone of our identity. Staff participation in these efforts is vital to our positive workplace culture and community impact, fostering camaraderie, pride, and unity among our team."

Donations are still welcome and can be made on the Land of Beds charity page. But their journey doesn't end here and the team is already brainstorming new ways to support Claire House Hospice and other local charities, aiming for an even more substantial impact in the future.
