Employees from Nottingham based Columbus IT took off into the
jungle last week to raise money for Midlands Air
Ambulance.
The Annesley based International business consultancy company
announced they would be supporting the Charity for the next 12
months.
To launch the fundraising 50 Columbus employees took part in a
sponsored jungle assault course on Friday 9th July, which has
raised over £4000 for the Charity.
The assault course took place at the Adrenalin Jungle in
Sherwood Forest, (Bills Thorpe) and involved employees undertaking
2 acres of scramble nets, rope swings, a burma bridge and much
more. The winning team on the day was "Assaulted" who completed the
course in an impressive 21.14 minutes.
Mary Hunter, Manager Director of Columbus IT says "Everyone had
a great day on Friday and it was a really fun way to kick off our
fundraising for Midlands Air Ambulance."
Columbus IT will be running activities throughout the year with
the aim of raising £5,000 for the Charity.
Stef Langford-Brown, Corporate Business Development Manager for
Midlands Air Ambulance says "As a Charity Midlands Air Ambulance
receives no government or national lottery funding so support from
the business community is vital to us.
"Columbus IT is a leading international consultancy firm so we
are particularly delighted that they have chosen us as their
charity of the year and look forward to working together for what I
hope will be a long time to come."
Columbus IT specialises in supplying ERP solutions to the
manufacturing and distribution sectors throughout the UK and
beyond.
