We are committed to raising £5000 this year to enable the team at Children with Cancer Fund to carry on their vital work...

Having survived the huge disruption of the pandemic, society as a whole is now experiencing multiple aftershocks from the health service to the household budget. The charity sector is at the sharp end especially some of our small local charities where we are based in West Sussex. This year for our chosen charity we have adopted the Childrens Cancer Fund Polegate in East Sussex. We are committed to raising £5000 this year to enable the team at Children with Cancer Fund to carry on their vital work with the families of children with cancer. The charity aims to grant wishes to children up to the age of 18 who have and or have had cancer and their families in the East Sussex and Brighton/Hove areas. The wishes can be medical or fun and are made to individual families as well as supporting a group together.

Quality family time is priceless and by raising funds for this very special charity we look to contribute our own efforts so that support for local hospitals and community nurses the wishes can continue to be gifted. Without your help we cannot do this. Therefore, the AP team are walking Around the World in AP days! Yes! you read that right. The team aim to walk around the world – logging their distances

Our team members log their distances (cycling, running, walking, ellipsis/cross trainer, rowing) done on a daily basis –with evidence, I hasten to add – James is very hot on this! The totals are plotted on our mapped-out route around the world. Our first destination is Paris, so watch this space for the next destination and updates.

Start - AP Security offices at Peregrine House to Eurotunnel le Shuttle France.

After just 4 days we have arrived in France !

After leaving the offices at Peregrine house the team have completed the first stage of the Around the World in AP Days adventure. The first stage consisted of 254km from our AP Security offices to the Eurotunnel at Folkestone and after a short ride arriving on French soil at the Eurotunnel in Coquelles France. The team have used a number of ways to make up the KM’s for the first stage which included riding, walking and running.

The next stage sees the Team make their way through the French countryside and on to the capital, Paris! From Paris they will then head to Berlin then Moscow.

All the best to the team undertaking the fundraiser.

Employee of the Month

Employee of the month this month goes to Ashton Lynch and Oluwafemi Odutola.

These two officers were involved in preventing a break in at one of our sites Alexandra Palace - Ashton suffered some bruising/grazing to his leg and Femi some minor bruising to his wrist during the incident. The Alexandra Palace, Chief Executive praised the the two individuals for their quick response that prevented items from being stolen, potential further damage to the pub on site and the subsequent arrest.

Well done to both officers!
