Story

We are proud to announce our private Corporate Team Building Experience and Women's Self Defence Workshop as part of our 24hr Spar-Athon, taking place at Fightworx Martial Arts Academy in Torquay.

We will be putting our skills to the test and undertaking this gruelling challenge in Aid of our supported charity, Rowcroft Hospice in Torquay. Rowcroft provide invaluable support and care for people across the Torbay region for people that are in need of end-of-life palliative care. The majority of funding comes from the community and on average costs £410 to provide care for 24hr’s as an inpatient and £1,684 to provide a week’s care in an individual’s home. That’s why funding via charity events such as these is so important.
