Suncorp staff conquer desert for charity

Four Suncorp employees have completed a 300km, 10-day trek through some of the country’s most remote areas, raising more than $50,000 for the charity Youngcare.

Suncorp Commercial Insurance executive portfolio managers Daniel Wilkinson and Paul Lawton, Business Insurance Specialist Terry Phillis and Compulsory Third Party Contact Centre Manager Scott Younes took part in the Simpson Desert Challenge.

The charity helps young people with special needs who have been forced to live in aged care facilities.

Suncorp, through its GIO and Suncorp Insurance brands, is a founding partner of the charity.

The company aims to raise $250,000 in the coming months through a series of sponsored events.
