Building consultancy Trident takes to the road to tackle youth homelessness
It’s not quite 500 miles, but Trident Building Consultancy is walking 150 miles to help end youth homelessness.
As part of RICS’ 150th birthday celebrations, the Trident team will cover 150 miles to raise money to provide 150 beds for young homeless people as part of a project with LandAid.
The team had an early start with the Birmingham office walking from the office and around the city canals on July 13 and the rest of the challenge will take place during August.
The Leeds office will pick up from where Birmingham left off by walking from Golden Acre to Bardsey on August 2; the Edinburgh office will walk from Forth Road Bridge to Edinburgh Castle on August 8; the Liverpool office will start from less regal surroundings at Hooton up to West Kirby on August 10; on the same day over the Irish Sea the Dublin office will walk around the city centre; back on English soil the London West End and London City offices will join forces to walk from Kew Bridge to Tower Bridge on August 16; both the Glasgow office and Bristol office will be out on August 17 walking from Drymen to Rowardennan in Scotland and a loop round Bristol starting and finishing at Portishead; and the Manchester office will finish the walk on August 24 by walking from Lytham to Fleetwood.
