New Event Update from the Skyscraper Challenge Team: 27th September
We would like to say once again how deeply sorry we are to those of you who took part in the Skyscraper Challenge and had such an unacceptable and upsetting experience.
Thank you for your patience whilst we have worked closely with our event delivery partners to better understand the reasons for the delays and event changes. We are now able to share further detail with you and have sent a letter to every participant setting out this information. The letters will arrive from 27th September onwards, but please do let us know if you don’t receive your letter within a few days and we will email you your letter.
We hope the letter is helpful in explaining what happened at the event and why we were not able to deliver to many the experience you expected and deserved.
We are truly sorry for the disappointment caused by the event changes and would like to thank you once again for your patience and understanding.
