London May 21/--Employees from managed service provider ControlCircle in London have signed up to take part in the Microsoft UK Challenge, a corporate challenge event that raises vital funds for the NSPCC.

The action packed challenge will take place over three days and four nights in the Welsh countryside and will see the ControlCircle team pit themselves against 125 other UK companies.

Under the watchful eyes of Ken O’Neill, Network Operations Centre Manager, the ControlCircle team are preparing to kayak, mountain bike, trail run, traverse, code break and navigate their way to raising £2,000 for the NSPCC. This contribution will add to the £3.3 million pounds the event has raised over the past eight years.  The details of the challenge are kept secret until the start of the event to keep the teams on their feet.

Damian Milkins, ControlCircle’s CEO said: “We are all training hard for this event. It will be extremely challenging, but we are ready to raise as much money as possible.”

NSPCC fundraiser Adele Churchill said: “The efforts of the ControlCircle team will support the vital work of the NSPCC, which makes a massive difference to the lives of children.
