"A flawless experience from start to finish. Thank you for creating an incredible staff challenge and fundraiser for our charity partner 'Mind'. Using bikes, canoes and trekking meant the logistics for the event were complex but you seamlessly delivered a professional event which was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone".
