Our personal message:

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

The Water Warriors are raising money for WaterAid by having completed a series of physical & mental challenges over 2 days and 3 nights in the Arctic Circle.

We were the only Scottish Company entered so proudly flew the flag. We were also competing for the inaugural "Water Industry Cup" against Southern Water since we were the flagship water companies to have entered this event - they won the Industry Cup, though we proudly won the "Best Fundraising Team" trophy!

To see roughly what we were getting up to - http://www.theeurochallenge.com/

Actual Footage is being shown at 08:00 25th October Channel 4

Team included - (Photo L-R) Annelise Glew; Mark Paterson; Becky Speight; Roy Davidson; & Lorraine Miller (and Gausta the reindeer)


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: WaterAid gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
