Meet the Team
WHO WE ARE
Since we started in 2001, we’ve grown to become the UK’s largest provider of therapists for events in the outdoor endurance world. Our very first events were in Scotland, supporting charity fundraising treks and races in the mountains of the Scottish Highlands.
Now we work throughout the UK and abroad on a whole range of amazing events and incredible expeditions. Working in wild environments is a huge amount of fun and a great way to meet like-minded people. We also support lots of city and town based events all over the country – marathons and half marathons amongst many others.
Our operations team has an enormous amount of experience in providing appropriately skilled therapists for any event whether it’s a city centre marathon raising money for charity or a world record breaking attempt. We are experts in figuring out how many therapists you need for your event and where you’ll need them most. Our therapy teams are highly trained professionals with a love of the outdoors, great energy, enthusiasm, awesome smiles and a love of taking their skills into different and challenging environments.
