CALLING on their full range of desert island skills, staff from local businesses rose to a tough challenge in a corporate team building day to raise funds for St Richard’s Hospice.
Six teams pitted their wits and physical prowess against each other in the annual hospice corporate challenge at Top Barn Activity Centre at Holt, near Worcester, which is expected to have raised around £4,000.charity’s work caring for patients with life threatening illnesses and supporting their families.
Teams from Yamazaki Mazak, Kendall Wadley, Harrison Clark Rickerbys, HallmarkHulme Solicitors and Pendragon Packaging faced up to the survival-themed challenges which included making fires, pots, shelters and rafts as well as shooting.
St Richard’s Hospice fundraising manager Rachel Jones said: “All the teams were up for the challenge and thoroughly enjoyed the competition. Kendall Wadley were the overall winners, just pipping Pendragon Packaging to the post by one point. We would also like to say a big thanks to the team at Top Barn Activity Centre for their organisation and to Worcester Bosch for their kind sponsorship.”
