“When we were involved in Decembeard, which we raised over £1,600.00 for the Teenage Cancer Trust. This was a fantastic amount of money that Apollo Taxis raised for this charity.”

Fit in 30 launched on June 1 and will run until June 30. Customers and supporters can sponsor staff by visiting the office at 30 Wick Street or directly with drivers in the taxis.

Maurice added: “Our customers and the community can even take a sponsor form and join us. Our taxis all have an orange top sign and we are all Littlehampton based but do cover surrounding areas.”
