It is now one month to go until brave walkers take on the 22-mile route for The Circuit of Bath.
We couldn’t host our charity events without the help of local businesses and communities who give their time and donations to ensure that this vital fundraiser runs smoothly. From our brilliant sponsors to kind donations, we wanted to express our gratitude to everyone who has taken part.
Sponsors-
We are proud to be sponsored by Achieve Breakthrough who have had a long-standing relationship with Julian House and have participated in previous Circuit of Bath Walks.
Achieve Breakthrough is a management and organisational change consultancy, based in Bath, with a mission to ‘unleash the power of people for a thriving world’. Founded in 2003, the organisation works globally with a diverse portfolio of industry-leading clients on areas such as leadership and team development, enabling change, business partnering and change management.
Lead Consultant Della Owen, who has also walked the full twenty-mile route a number of times, said: “Achieve Breakthrough is so proud to sponsor the Circuit of Bath Walk, helping Julian House in their mission to ensure socially excluded people are supported and empowered to build sustainable, independent lives.
Achieve Breakthrough will be taking part on the day and completing the full 22 mile route.
Prizes-
As a way to congratulate our walkers for completing the walk, Ann from Consciously You has once again kindly supplied all our walkers with homemade bath salts from her shop in Bath.
