Story


We are delighted to announce that the newly formed ‘ Team Exterior Plas’ are taking on a massive challenge at the end of this month, when they head to Tanzania, Africa to climb the tallest free standing mountain in the world – Mount  Kilimanjaro


Whilst this has always on the ‘bucket list’ of  Managing Director, Andy Sheen, the speed in which the trip has been arranged is quite something.

The team will be heading to Tanzania next week on Wednesday 29th March, and as part of teir trip are raising money for ' Help for Heroes', which this year is marking its 10th anniversary.

  Andy said “ We were talking within the team about challenges and being able to accomplish our own aspirations when it became clear that other members of the company held the same interests as me.  We wanted to set ourselves a challenge, and whilst doing so, continue to raise awareness and funds  for the remarkable charity, "Help for Heroes”. 

Team member and Senior Contracts Manager Tony Willis was also up for the challenge, he added  “ We knew the trekking season would be over soon and if we didn’t face it now, it would be several months before we could attempt it – so the time felt right.   This year Help for Heroes are celebrating their 10th year, and we are proud that we will be able to help support them during this special milestone year'

We wave goodbye to our team on Wednesday 29th March, wishing them all a safe and amazing journey.

We hope that our blog will allow us update the progress on their expedition, and we will be updating our website  as our fund raising grows.

Exterior Plas will match every £1 that is pledged for this amazing charity, so please give generously
