The event was held to raise awareness of the challenges faced by disabled people on a daily basis.

Attendees were encouraged to consider how they could help to create more inclusive environments. Over the course of the day the teams participated in a range of activities, including, creating two fully functioning prosthetic hands which would be donated to children in need in a developing world country.

The port team led by Nick Luck, Hutchison Ports (UK) HR Director thoroughly enjoyed the challenge which, as well as being great for team-building, was a real eye-opener on how very challenging daily life for the disabled can be when the abled are not properly educated on the challenges they face.
