During Spring 2024, as part of programme resources, young people in Company & Seniors have been taking part in a national ‘Around the World in 60 Minutes’ challenge, and the results are now in.
Congratulations to the 80th Birmingham, who managed to travel around the world in a very impressive 20:07 minutes, successfully cracking the case of the elusive spy on the way . We hope you enjoy your £50 voucher to spend on equipment to celebrate the win.
Congratulations to all those teams that were very close behind in this challenge, with 17 teams travelling around the world in under 30 minutes, and 57 teams completing the challenge within 45 minutes. The full results can be found in the table below.
In total we had 74 teams enter the competition, representing 51 Companies. Thank you to everyone who took part.
