“It will mean so much to everyone to raise as much money as we can as everybody wants to help.”
The team at Wakefield branch have created a route inside the branch enabling them to complete 168 laps, the equivalent to one mile, with other branches creating similar routes.
All money raised will be added to the Co-operative Bank Charity account and paid to the NHS alongside other funds raised throughout the bank.
