Crawley and Whiteley teams take on Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon – all in a day!
Hats off (and hiking boots on) to the intrepid team from Acron Aviation who triumphantly took part in the legendary Three Peaks Challenge at the weekend, taking on the highest mountains in England, Scotland, and Wales: Scafell Pike, Ben Nevis, and Snowdon, in one unforgettable adventure.
Over the course of the challenge, colleagues from the London Training Centre, Crawley, and Flight Data Intelligence, Whiteley, offices powered through rugged trails, steep climbs and the weather raising an incredible £14,000+ for two worthy causes: St Catherine’s Hospice Sussex and Surrey and Oakhaven Hospice.
From the first steps on Ben Nevis to the triumphant final ascent of Snowdon, these Acron Aviation heroes showed team spirit, determination, and good humour to complete the challenge.
“We set out to challenge ourselves, support our communities, and enjoy a bit of fresh mountain air,” said David Coward, SVP & GM, Training Services, at Acron Aviation and organizer of the challenge. “I couldn’t be prouder of the whole team, they tackled the challenge with enthusiasm, teamwork, and an infectious positive spirit. The money they’ve raised will make a real difference for the hospices, and the memories are priceless.”
With tired legs and full hearts, a well-earned rest and maybe some celebratory cake are top of the agenda.
