🏥🏗️Our hospital construction partners IntegratedHealth Projects (IHP) and Dalkia have taken on a winter challenge.

On Thursday 27 November 2025, the awesome teams at IHP and Dalkia completed a 9-mile winter hike up Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), all the way to its 3,200ft peak.

And they are not just chasing views… they have raised £3000 for The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital Charity 💙

Iwan Lewis, Operations Manager at IHP/VINCI Building said “The hike was intentionally scheduled during winter to experience challenging conditions, testing resilience and adaptability in a harsher environment, while raising funds and awareness for the Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital Charity, a cause close to the hearts of IHP and Dalkia teams."

Thank you to IHP, Dalkia and all the people who donated in support. The money donated will go towards building a ‘SkyGarden’ and sensory room for Paediatric patients.

You smashed it! 💪✨
