Charity Events and Challenges
We also deliver business charity events involving outdoor activities such as abseiling, sponsored walks, or ascents of one of the UK's highest mountains. Below are some ideas for you:
- Take part in one of the UK's most exciting abseils: The Miller's Dale abseil in Derbyshire descends off a disused railway bridge down towards the river Wye, a popular and thrilling challenge!
- Take on one of the UK's highest mountains: Get your team ready to walk up a very big hill and enjoy some stunning views and team photos when you get to the top! We will get your staff prepared and will accommpany them on their challenge.
- Climb the height of a famous mountain as a team: We will take your team on an adventure that involves steep walking/ scrambling and a lot of rock climbing! Together, they will tackle the same ascent as if climbing up a famous mountain such as Mount Killamanjaro, Mount Blanc or even Mount Everest. A great team challenge.
- A sponsored walk, at a level of challenge suitable to your team, taking in some stunning scenery along the way.
