This year a group of Caterpillar Apprentices, based at the Peterborough manufacturing facility, are taking on an EPIC challenge over the course of 6 months. Starting in March the team will be taking on 6 amazing challenges over the course of the year culminating in a group completing the Fire and Ice Ultra Challenge in Iceland...!
Here are the events the team are taking on:
* Climbing Snowdon - March 2024
* Climbing Ben Nevis - April 2024
* Coastal Trek Blakeney - Cromer - May 2024
* Lake District 50km - June 2024
* Climbing Scafell Pike - July 2024
* Fire and Ice Ultra Challenge Iceland - September 2024
The team consists of circa. 16 employees from the apprenticeship program and together they will be looking to complete 6 challenges, while documenting their journey and raising money for Charity.
Over the course of the year, the team will be organizing fundraising activities leading up to all of the events to raise money for CPSL Mind. As one of our company charity partners we have a long standing working relationship with the organization, and all money raised will go towards helping so many people struggling with mental health difficulties.
