Over 150 colleagues from the Cobhamand Dartford offices of Willmott Dixon Construction will be taking part in the2016 Cobham Challenge - Lake District Legacy! 

This year we will be raising funds to support Chestnut Tree House. This is theonly children's hospice in East and West Sussex and cares for over 280 childrenand young adults from 0-25 years of age with progressive life-limitingconditions from Sussex and South East Hampshire. There are potentially 1,000families with life-limited children in Sussex. Chestnut Tree House offerssupport for the whole family including psychological and bereavement support,end of life and short break care and sibling support.

As our name suggests this year we are heading to the Lakes! Our challenge willtake place by the lake of Ullswater commencing 24th June.

Our team will undertake a challenge like no other, Why? So we can make adifference...

Our two day challenge will compriseof up to four activities running concurrently, and I am taking on the toughest physical challenge I have ever done. Although the main purpose of thechallenge is to raise much needed funds for Chestnut Tree House we canguarantee that the weekend will be full of fun, laughter and determination aswe work together to create our Legacy.

Day one
- A 6 mile hike taking in Blencathra, Brunt Knott, and Souther Fell

Day two
- A 121 mile route road cycle taking in all of themajor lakes and exploring the national park. Just to put it in perspective that's 13-14 hours of riding, over 2.5 miles of pure vertical gain with gradients upto 33% - this is going to HURT!! Oh yeh, and it's probably going to rain!!
