Glastonbury-based construction company -- and main sponsor of Glastonbury Nub News - Melhuish & Saunders, are celebrating their centennial year with a daring charity event – abseiling for the Somerset Wildlife Trust (SWT).

The firm, a corporate member of the SWT, has pledged to raise £500 in much-needed funds for the local charity.

The brave participants from the company include Darryl Mitchard, Lucy Mitchard, Ethan Mitchard, Ava Mitchard, Bella Mitchard, Robert Morgan, Kevin Bird, and Bobby Vining.

The charity event, 'Abseil for Wildlife!', will take place on 23rd September 2023, offering stunning views across the Bristol Channel.

The team at Melhuish & Saunders say they are committed to protecting the wildlife and natural landscapes of Somerset, and every penny raised will contribute to this cause.
