The team not only works well together on duty; security guards Alex Gunn and Bill McInnes recently undertook a 34mile walk in aid of Helpfor Heroes, raising £600 with the help of the shopping centre. The walk was arranged by Steve Barron, head of IPC security, who was looking for two team members from each site. Bill (52), an ex-serviceman, and Alex (28) jumped at the chance as it is a charity close to their hearts.

Alex said;

'The walk was hard going and the last 6 miles it rained cats and dogs but we finished it - with sore feet!
