"Mental health and wellbeing are a top priority at Infinigate Cloud and that’s why our employees collectively chose to partner with Solent Mind as our corporate charity," said Michael Frisby, senior vice-president of cloud services at the Infinigate Group.
"We’d like to invite everyone to come along to support our adventurous abseiling team. It’s going to be a fantastic day and I will be personally joining a team of 40 abseilers comprised of Infinigate Cloud employees, customers and partners to descend the magnificent Spinnaker Tower."
Joanne Silsbury, corporate liaison officer at Solent Mind, added: "I’m incredibly pleased that Solent Mind have been chosen as Infinigate Cloud’s corporate charity this year.
"I’m so impressed with their commitment to raising £20,000 that I’ve decided to join the staff and their partners in abseiling down the Spinnaker Tower. I haven’t done a fundraising challenge myself for four years so I’m really looking forward to taking part!"
Last year, Solent Mind helped 55,000 people experiencing poor mental health, equating to 1 in 28 of the local population.
