Newlands Shopping Centre manager Neil Griffin said: “Our staff are embarking on a three-day fundraising exercise by climbing three of the UK’s high mountains from Thursday, June 2, to Saturday, June 4.

“And on the Saturday our local gym – Fit4less - are bringing in static bikes into the centre and during the day are going to see how many times they can cycle the distance between Great Ormond Street Hospital and the Newlands Shopping Centre.

“We are absolutely delighted to be a part of One Great Day.”
