A BOLTON marketing agency has helped to raise funds in the fight against multiple sclerosis by putting a jungle marathon runner into the spotlight.

Cube3 Marketing in Breightmet Street conducted a publicity campaign with television, radio, newspapers and online coverage.

The firm was working on behalf of its Leeds-based client Bentley Organic, who sponsor multiple sclerosis organisation Flicker.MS.

The campaign has featured Yorkshire teacher Josh Whitehead preparing to run the Jungle Marathon. The 125 mile, six day race through the Amazon is sponsored by Bentley Organic and starts on October 9.

The PR campaign led to coverage for both the firm and organisation across Yorkshire.

Phil Ogden, from Cube, said: "We were delighted to assist in promoting such a worthy fundraising."
