Levi's Supports Cancer Charity Team Solan with "10 for 10" Fundraising Campaign

Levi's North East Community Champion Sarah Montanarini has been a personal beneficiary of Team Solan's support after her husband was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma. In response, Sarah and Levi's have launched a regional fundraising campaign, "10 for 10," which aims to raise £10,000 for the charity by completing static bike rides in 10 stores across the North East. The Leeds event, part of the "10 for 10" campaign, takes place on Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 July at the Levi's store in Trinity Leeds Shopping Centre. The event invites the public to come along, cheer on the riders, and make donations via QR codes and contactless payments.
