Midas Construction never flinches from a challenge and the chance to compete in the fearsome Corporate Challenge Cup and raise money for life-limited children in the region was embraced enthusiastically by Midas Group's Devon & Cornwall team
Organized by the Children's Hospice South West, the challenge took place in June at the stunning Wimbleball Lake in Exmoor National Park where teams from across the South West competed on foot, bike and boat to collect points and battle it out to win the Corporate Challenge Cup.
Team captain Sam Lockyer said: "Midas is very supportive of this very special charity. We have been involved with them for some time and are currently working on ‘Little Harbour', the third Children's Hospice South West which is being built in St Austell, Cornwall after nearly three years of funnd-raising towards the £5m project costs.
"The charity needs every penny it can get so, although the challenge was very tough, we were we were delighted to take part in their fantastic event."
The six strong Midas team performed brilliantly on the day taking second place and raising over £2000 for the charity.
