The Construction Industry Sailing Regatta sets sail in aid of CRASH

The Construction Industry Sailing Regatta in aid of CRASH took to the water to raise vital funds for our work with homelessness charities and hospices.

CRASH Corporate Patron 8build and supporters PHP Architects entered two teams each with a donation to CRASH included in the entry fee. This means before teams set sail, they had played their part in constructing places that care for people, supporting the industry’s charity.

PHP Architects took the opportunity for the senior leadership team to invite clients and associates, enjoying 4 races throughout the day. After a day of friendly competition, PHP Architects claimed the trophy from defending champions 8build.

Prometheus Sailing, part of Sunsail UK has supported CRASH with a summer sailing event for multiple years, this year raising £2,200 to support our work with homelessness charities and hospices.

‘’What a great way to raise funds for your industry charity, whilst entertaining clients and team building. Thank you to everyone who took part and to the Prometheus Sailing team, we are so grateful for the commitment you show to constructing places that care for people.’’
