With just over one week left until Mark and Nina set off on their 250-mile Kindness Amble, the countdown is officially on. The stroller is being test-driven, the blister plasters are packed, and the route is locked in.

While the journey relies heavily on the goodwill of individuals along the towpaths, it is also being fueled by a powerful force closer to home: corporate kindness.

As an IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) and recycling firm, Surplex UK is built entirely on the principles of sustainability and environmental responsibility. Because of this, seeing the business community step up to align with our mission has been one of the most rewarding parts of preparing for this trek.

Thank You to Our Existing Sponsors
We want to extend a massive, heartfelt thank you to the corporate sponsors and local businesses who have already backed the walk. From donating professional, weather-proof signage to offering safe logistical stops along the 23-day route, your generosity has been incredible.

By backing the Kindness Amble, our sponsors aren’t just helping Mark and Nina clear 250 miles of canal paths, they are actively funding vital emergency environmental repairs for the Canal & River Trust and supporting animal rescue programs at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home. Your support is a tangible demonstration of your corporate values in action.

The Power of ESG and CSR Alignment
In modern business, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) are no longer optional extras; they are core pillars of a healthy corporate strategy.

Supporting the Kindness Amble offers a unique opportunity for businesses to hit multiple ESG targets at once:

• Environmental Impact: Directly funding the protection and restoration of our “blue spaces” and green corridors across the UK canal network.
• Social Impact: Supporting the welfare of rescue animals and engaging directly with local communities to foster goodwill and connection.
