Fluid Branding – Corporate Challenge

Fluid Branding are taking part in this year’s Corporate Challenge to support Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW). The promotional merchandise company, based in St. Austell, Cornwall will join other businesses on 19th May in some challenging activities in order to raise funds for the charity.

Sarah Beldon, Marketing Executive at Fluid Branding said, “We’re really pleased we are able to take part in the Corporate Challenge this year, it’s something we’ve wanted to do for a while and working with CHSW this year is the perfect opportunity. It’s great for staff to be able to work together as a team out of the office, and we get to raise some money for a really worthy cause.

“We’re entering two teams this year, as we had so many staff wanting to support Children’s Hospice South West. We can make things really interesting by having boys vs. girls and it means we have the opportunity to raise more money and really make a difference to the cause.”
 Bernadette Thoreau, Children’s Hospice South West Corporate Partnerships Fundraiser at Little Harbour adds: “This really is the ultimate mental and physical challenge. We have a brilliant programme of challenges in store for Fluid Branding and the other teams taking part- I know because I’ve tested some of the course with my colleagues!
