Story

<p>Until very&nbsp;recently the only rambling that went on in Royal Mail Data Services was during team meetings when we discussed the Data Protection Act...</p> <p><span style="color: #000080;"><strong>But...</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #000000;">That is&nbsp;all about to change...</span></p> <table class="cquote" style="background-color: transparent; margin: auto; width: auto; border-collapse: collapse; border-style: none;"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="text-align: left; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; color: #b2b7f2; font-size: 35px; font-weight: bold; padding: 10px;" width="20" valign="top"> <p>&ldquo;</p> </td> <td style="padding-bottom: 4px; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 4px;" valign="top"> <p><strong><em>&nbsp;</em></strong>&nbsp;<strong><em>In&nbsp;2011&nbsp;a crack&nbsp;Data Unit was sent to&nbsp;Mount Snowdon&nbsp;by a military court for a crime they did&nbsp;not&nbsp;commit. This team&nbsp;promptly escaped from a maximum security Data Centre&nbsp;to the&nbsp;Welsh&nbsp;underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can sponsor... The Data Services Team....</em></strong></p> </td> <td style="text-align: right; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; color: #b2b7f2; font-size: 35px; font-weight: bold; padding: 10px;" width="20" valign="bottom">&rdquo;</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>That's right! The Royal Mail Data Services Team are completing the X-treme Snowdonia Challenge for The Intensive Care Foundation. The challenge involves a breathtaking trek&nbsp;of endurance and stamina with some of the team members covering up to&nbsp;24.7 miles and&nbsp;ascending 5,324 feet&nbsp;from the coast to the top of Mount Snowdon!</p> <p>We are raising money for the Intensive Care Foundation; a charity close to all our hearts as our colleague <strong>Paul Davison</strong> was struck down with Meningitis at Christmas last year and it was only as a result of the first class care and attention that he received form his local ICU that he is with us today to support this great cause.&nbsp;</p> <p>The charity&nbsp;is the representative body for intensive care professionals and patients and&nbsp;is dedicated to the delivery of the highest quality of critical care to patients. The services provided by Intensive Care Units&nbsp;are critical to everyone's lives at some point; whether it be through accident, disease, age&nbsp;related illness or unexpected health problems.The care they provide helps to save millions of people's lives&nbsp;a year and you just never know when you might need it too!</p> <p>Please support us and this great charity by donating whatever you can and we promise to do both you and the charity proud.&nbsp;</p> <p>So please, please&nbsp;dig deep and donate now.</p> <p>Thank you,</p> <p>The Royal Mail Data Services Team</p>
