A TEAM of financial advisers from The Wealth Group of Queens Road, Evesham navigated some of the toughest peaks in the Lake District on foot and by bike in a race which saw them raise thousands of pounds for charity.

Managing director, Nico Kontou Goymer said: “Invesco Perpetual Lakes Adventure Race is a hike and bike trek over about 50km and 16 peaks and was a really tough challenge. But we worked together, we had fun and were driven on knowing we were working to raise money for the Youth Adventure Trust, which is such a great cause. Thanks again to all those clients, family and friends who supported us. So far we have raised more than £4,000, but there is still some more to come in.”
