toob CEO and CFO raise £7k for mental health charities

toob’s CEO Nick Parbutt (pictured) and CFO Mike Banwell have helped raise more than £7k for charity through extreme challenges.  

Banwell banded with eight fellow rugby coaches to honour a dear friend and complete the Jurassic Coast Walk Challenge for mental health charity Mind.

The 100km trek required intense training but the team met the challenge and completed the course, which included a 2360m climb.

Parbutt took on his own challenge by abseiling 100m of the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth for Solent Mind. The combined total fundraising is £7,331 and rising. 

Parbutt said: “The work of Solent Mind is invaluable. Mental ill health can, and does, affect people from all walks of life, and Solent Mind works so hard to support people suffering from mental ill health and the people surrounding them.”
