At Fernco, we are passionate about providing solutions that can contribute to protecting homes and communities from flooding.
This year, we’re launching the Race Against the Rivers Challenge—a year-long fundraising initiative to help those affected by flooding. Our goal is to raise £25,000 by covering a combined distance of 2,446 miles—the total length of 25 of the UK’s major rivers—through walking, cycling, running, and more. We’ve committed to this as a company, but we’d love your help.
The funds we raise will support REACT Disaster Response, a humanitarian rapid response charity providing immediate aid and long-term recovery to communities impacted by natural disasters, including flooding. REACT repurpose the hard-earned skills and experience of military veterans and turn them into exceptionally agile and resilient humanitarians, capable of rapidly deploying when people need immediate and urgent relief.
Together, we can Race Against the Rivers. Every step, every mile logged, and every pound donated will make a real impact to help protect homes and strengthen communities when flooding occurs.
Join us, support us, and let’s rise to the challenge.
