Recruitment or Mud Run? The Technical Resources Tough Mudder Challenge for Centrepoint What do recruitment and mud have in common? More than many realise! Last weekend, the Technical Resources team traded keyboards for muddy trainers and took on the infamous Tough Mudder course, all to help raise vital funds for Centrepoint the UK’s lead charity supporting homeless young people. Between scaling walls, navigating tricky obstacles, and braving freezing mud pits, Our teamwork and determination stood out, whether we were securing top talent or supporting each other through challenges. The same spirit of resilience that defines us in technical recruitment carried us across the Tough Mudder finish line, too. Why Centrepoint? Why Now? Centrepoint is a vital charity providing homeless young people with safe accommodation, mental and physical health support, and essential life and work skills. Their aim is to help young people gain the confidence and tools to live independently. Every pound raised by teams like ours helps secure a brighter, safer future for the vulnerable youth Centrepoint supports. Our Muddy Mission This year, we have set a fundraising target of £3,000 for Centrepoint. All donations are important and appreciated. If you wish to support Centrepoint’s work, donations of any size directly contribute to improving the lives of young people. Our fundraising efforts are ongoing, helping provide opportunities and support to thousands of vulnerable young individuals. A Final Word from the Team Tough Mudder reminded us that the best achievements happen when we rally together whether overcoming obstacles in recruitment, in the mud, or in life. Challenges are easier with a team behind you, and for Centrepoint’s young people, support makes all the difference. We thank everyone who has supported and donated. With collective effort, progress continues towards ending youth homelessness.
