FluidOne's Bandwidth Bandits complete extreme charity challenge

FluidOne's Bandwidth Bandits led by Chief Exec Piers Daniell conquered '10Peaks: The Lakes' in aid of the charity Place2Be, which works to improve the emotional wellbeing of children and their families suffering from bereavement, domestic violence and bullying.

The 10Peaks events are a challenge for the toughest competitors and include ultra-distance running and hiking across some of the UK's most rugged and mountainous terrain. The non-stop courses vary from 48km to 89km and must be finished within 24 hours.

"We completed the 3-peaks challenge a couple of years ago, so logically this was the next step for us," said Daniell. "We covered over 50KM across 3,500 meters of ascent in just under 18 hours. It was sheer agony.

"Having risen well over £20,000 since 2015 through various company activities, we'd really love to smash that figure in 2017."
