Site engineer and team leader, Simon Massy, said: "We're excited about raising money for the charity Help for Heroes; showing our support and commitment to our service men and women for the sacrifices that they make every day. Not only was it an excellent opportunity to raise money for a worthwhile cause but it was also a good team building exercise, everyone came together to keep peoples morale up and keep people going, in the wise words of Sir Edmund Hillary ‘It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves'."
