2023 Challenge: Settling the score!

We’ve been celebrating our 20th anniversary year with a challenge on the Isle of Man – Settling the Score.

Between 12 and 15 August we did smaller versions of all five of our major fundraising challenges to date, and we’re raising money for two of our favourite charities: Aspire and Go Beyond.

Yes, this means we ran a half marathon with the cellos, played on a pier and a cathedral roof, walked from coast to coast, and climbed a mountain, all with the cellos (and playing at appropriate points)!
