Lisburn team helps Operation Lipstick to raise over£18k for TinyLife
The event saw over 130 ladies take part in activities including archery, orienteering, wall climbing, raft building over the course of the day. Team Venture raised more than £1,700 and, in total, the event raised £18,000.
This is the second year the team from Venture has taken part. Managing Director Julie McBride said: “It is the most fun we’ve had in terms of fundraising for the charity. We were certainly put through our paces but the weather was glorious and we got stuck into everything from orienteering to raft building. There was a lot of healthy competition between the teams taking part and we’re thrilled that the event has bane such a huge success.”
