We’ve been lucky enough to have had some great press coverage so far, and at the moment there’s always something lined up, so we’ll keep this page up to date.
Please click the pictures to enlarge, or the newspaper links to be taken to the feature on the newspaper site itself (where available).
Here’s where we’ve been featured so far:
Lancashire Telegraph, 17.02.11
“Desert Rally To Raise Cancer Cash”
Jonnay’s local paper features his story. Newspaper site
Heywood Advertiser, 10.02.11
“Ben Takes The Long Road To See The Road”
Ben’s turn to be the local interest. Cool point – Ben didn’t even know this had been published until WELL after it had. Newspaper site
Wirral Globe, 27.02.11
“Wirral man taking part in Mongolia Rally for breast cancer charity”
Matt’s local does the feature this time. The caption under the picture made us laugh. Newspaper site
Oldham Advertiser, 10.03.11
“Team On Charity Mission”
Nick’s local this time. Again, no idea it had gone in, but a nice surprise. They got a lot of the figures wrong, and Jonnay and Kieron are swapped on the pic, but nice to see it
No website link for this one.
MMHSCT “Staff News”, October 2010 onwards
“The Magnificent Mongolian Five”
Nick’s employers in-house newsletter are featuring us until we go, very good of them. As a huge employer, there’s a lot of people get to see this, and it’s led to a lot of donations to Breakthrough Breast Cancer. No website link here, though.
Bury Journal, 02.03.11
“Friends Team Up For Journey Of A Lifetime”
A local free sheet from Ben’s neck of the woods, but it has a wide circulation. Nice to report we had people contacting us by email asking how to donate offline because of this article. You can view this article on the paper website, but it’s a wee bit more tricky than normal. Go here, then click ‘View Archive’ (top left hand corner) then select the 02.03.11 issue. We’re on page 7.
Oldham Chronicle, 25.05.11
“9,000-mile charity trek for friends”
A really nice piece from the Chronicle, Nick’s local paper. Enjoyed the shoot too, and then released all the balloons. Many thanks to Lewis for sorting it all out. Newspaper site.
