CBRE’s City and West End Agency teams were in training this week, in preparation for the CBRE Property Peak Challenge at the Heron Tower on Thursday 23 February in aid of LandAid and The Worshipful Company of Chartered Surveyors.

In readiness for the big day – involving racing up the Bishopgate tower’s gruelling 888 steps - the agents tackled the slightly more modest heights of CBRE’s own staircase in its Henrietta Place offices.

Executive Director Dan Roberts, who works with Heron International on leasing the City’s tallest tower said: “We’re hoping our prior knowledge of the building will give us an edge over our competitors, but just in case we also decided to give ourselves a small test run closer to home. 888 steps is quite a feat, but the prospect of the view from the top – and no doubt a glass of something to celebrate – should keep us going.”

Proceeds from the event will go jointly to LandAid and the Worshipful Company of Chartered Surveyors. The challenge is being sponsored by CBRE, and supported by Estates Gazette. To sign up visit www.propertypeakchallenge.org
