Plans for the start of the Thurrock 100 walking challenge moved on apace last week when Mayor of Thurrock, Cllr Sue Gray, met representatives from HW Wilson & Co..

The South Ockendon-based builders are supporting the event by providing drinks and fruit for the walkers, as well as encouraging their staff to take part.

The mayor thanked Peter Wiffen from H W Wilson for always stepping up to the plate in the community and showing their support.

Other businesses are encouraged to follow in the steps of HW Wilson and support their local Thurrock 100 events. If you’d like to take part, just give the organisers a call on 01375 652510.
