Story
Girlings Gladiators will be taking on the Tough Mudder challenge on Saturday 17th July, will you sponsor us to help raise funds for our corporate charity Take Off?
The last year and a half has highlighted the importance of our mental health and wellbeing, and has proposed new challenges for all of us.
Take Off works for better physical and mental health and provides people with much needed ready-made social networks and peer support services. It uses a peer support model and most of its services take the form of self-help groups, which are either ‘talking’ or ‘doing’ focused. Even through the difficulties of the past year and a half, they have persevered and adapted so that they can continue to offer their service users the same fantastic support that they needed, even if at a distance or digitally.
Tough Mudder is a series of obstacle and mud runs that will push your physical and mental limits without the pressure of competition. A community built on teamwork and overcoming obstacles, where stepping outside your comfort zone is the reward.
“The last year has been particularly challenging for many people and it’s great to be involved in undertaking this Tough Mudder challenge for Take Off. For those that may feel physically and mentally stuck in the mud at times, there are always people around that can help you overcome even the toughest obstacles”
