37 PRO INSTALLER OCTOBER 2015 PRO SPORT @proinstaller1 Conquering the Three Peaks Five determined members of the team at Truemans Windows recently took on the 24.5 mile-long hike on three of Yorkshire’s highest peaks in a bid to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support. The five set off on their expedition and, after battling through the physical and mental exhaustion that the mountains demand, successfully completed the challenge and raised an impressive £2,140 for the charity. MD, Joe Trueman, commented: “We chose Macmillian Cancer Support as our charity for 2015 due to the amazing work they have done for so many individuals and families that have been affected by cancer. Having the opportunity to complete the Yorkshire Three Peak Challenge in aid of this charity was a great experience and we are very pleased to have raised a total of £2140.” After twelve and a half hours the first members of the group crossed the finish line, closely followed by the rest of the team. Having had the chance to reflect on their achievement, the five agreed that, although it was one of the hardest challenges they have ever undertaken, facing cancer alone is immeasurably tougher. www.truemanswindows.co.uk SUPPORTING THE CRICKETING TALENT OF TOMORROW Integral blind manufacturer Morley Glass & Glazing is sponsoring a Yorkshire cricket club, whose former players include England team legends Sir Len Hutton and Ray Illingworth.
