ACDC employees completed the Snowdonia Charity Challenge on Saturday 7 July,in support of the charity REGAIN.
Set in Snowdonia National Park in Wales the'ACDC Bandits'–consisting of Gareth Frankland,Paul Whittaker,Paul Wilkinson and Nik Gardener–completed the challenge which included cycling,climbing and canoeing over a single day.
The ACDC bandits finished the event in seven hours and 17 minutes,which was within their eight-hour target.The team also met their financial target of 2,000 pound,but further donations can still be made through their Just Giving page.
Gareth Frankland said of the day:"We had an incredible experience–40 miles of cycling,a ten mile walk up a bit of a hill and a bit of a canoe round a lake,which was a walk in the park(my legs are telling me otherwise).But it made a huge difference knowing that we were raising money for a great cause".
The money raised from the challenge will go to REGAIN,a charity that supports men and women paralysed tetraplegically in sporting accidents.
