As a company, we are extremely fortunate to have a fantastic team of people and experience some positive business results. As a form of recognition we support a number of organisations locally and internationally.
PACE Networks is proud to support Charlie Martell, the Charitable Adventurer. Having trained as an Army bomb-disposal expert, Charlie spent several years working with British-based mine-clearance charity HALO Trust. This included spells in Cambodia, Angola and the Republic of Georgia. Charlie’s first charitable adventures included being part of a three-man team in the 2005 Polar Challenge ski-race to the North Pole, and then the following year he headed a four-man team to row between New York and Mevagissey, Cornwall, claiming two Guinness World Records in the process. Together the two challenges raised more than £250,000 for the Meningitis Trust.
Charlie’s current planned charitable adventures include Flying to Freedom, Return to the Pacific, and DW2016. Visit the new Pacific 2019 website to remain up-to-date with Charlie’s latest challenge, or visit his website here to learn more about previous adventures.
