Story

In May 2019, we received the unfortunate news that one of our dear colleagues, Frances Emery, sadly passed away.

Frances was with CHG MERIDIAN for over 20 years and was one of the most beautiful and genuine people you would ever hope to work with. This was devastating news for all of us, and especially many of our colleagues who worked very closely with Frances over this time. 

Frances was diagnosed with Motor Neurone disease some time ago, and as a result, had to stop working in April 2018. Many of her close friends and colleagues at CHG kept in regular contact with her, and she was always upbeat and positive about her situation, despite the awful nature of it. 

It is because of this terrible situation that we have decided to form a partnership with the Motor Neurone Disease Association (MNDA) as we attempt to support this wonderful charity in their fight against Motor Neurone Disease.

During the month of November, we will attempt to virtually cycle the 520-mile distance from the CHG-MERIDIAN UK office in Egham, to the groups Head Office in Weingarten, Germany. 

The challenge doesn't end once we've completed the 520 miles, however. For every mile, we go beyond the 520 distance, CHG-MERIDIAN UK will donate £10 to the MND Association and therefore providing us with extra motivation to keep pushing throughout the entire month!
