Story
On Friday 18th May at 11:30, KPMG Gatwick's fittest (in some cases...) and finest took to the outdoors and performed a Taekwondo routine, which was performed simultaneously by 770 other KPMG colleagues up and down the country. In the process KPMG set a new Guiness World Record for the largest ever multi-location taekwondo display. We hope to raise over £200,000 nationally for Barnardo's through our endeavors.

Barnardo’s transforms the lives of vulnerable children across the UK through the work of their projects, their campaigning and their research expertise, and this really is a fantastic opportunity to raise as much money as we can for them as our nominated People Charity.

Plenty of bumps and bruises were incurred on the day (mostly by the end of the warm up!) and each of the participants gave it everything, as you can see in the photos. PLEASE get behind everybody that was brave enough to sign up and show your support by donating generously, it is all very much appreciated and is for a wonderful cause.
Thank you so much,
The Gatwick Taekwondo Team
