Pill Regatta is an annual event that is rich in history and offers a safe and educational experience for children and families to enjoy being on the water. We are very honoured to share a photo of the plaque from the new Trinity 500 boat that we helped purchase through previous charity events. The boat has been named 'The Port Boys' in memory of our late friend and former colleague, Mark Rice, fondly known as 'Pumper.' It’s an emotional tribute that means so much to the company. This year, our staff will be participating in the Race 4 Sharps Challenge, an invitational race for families and friends connected to the named boats. We wish everyone a successful experience as they participate in the event.

On Saturday, Bristol Port funded 20 colleagues to participate in the 2024 Tough Mudder event at Badminton Estate. Our team was well-represented with participants from Operations, Marine, Motorshop, Police, Gearstore, and Warehouse.

The Tough Mudder event is a challenging obstacle course race designed to test participants' physical and mental endurance. Unlike traditional races, Tough Mudder emphasises #teamwork, fostering strong bonds, and pushing personal limits rather than focusing on competition. The course features a series of intense obstacles that require strength, agility, and resilience to overcome.

Well done to the Bristol Port team for completing the Tough Mudder race! Their determination and perseverance were incredible, but what truly stood out was the way they strengthened their teamwork throughout the challenge. From start to finish, they supported each other every step of the way—proving that when we work together, we can overcome any obstacle. 👏 🏅
