November 2019

A team from Prettys took part in the Fiducia Wealth Charity Challenge on 20 June 2019. As we had not performed very well in the challenge the previous year, we were determined to perform better this time around.

A number of local companies participated in the series of individual and team games, with every point counting towards the overall team score. From the first seven games played, Prettys topped the charts in basketball, tennis, quoits, and the gutter ball challenge.

With these positive results, we were just about in the lead. The penultimate challenge involved transferring as many jelly beans as possible into a bowl in one minute using only a straw.

The final challenge, was a space hopper relay. Although we were all pleased to relive our childhood, we were promptly reminded that space hoppers are hard work when you are an adult!

Despite, however, these challenging final games, overall we achieved a 13 point lead and were very pleased to overwrite our poor performance from the last year and win the challenge.

The event was held in aid of ABF The Soldiers Charity (https://soldierscharity.org/) The charity offers a lifetime of support to soldiers, veterans and their families. In total, the charity challenge raised over £1,500.
