Do your site staff use phones, tablets or both? Please let us know so that we can update our records

We'd be really grateful if you could let us know which brand of phones & tablets your site staff use - and whether you'd recommend them.


Could you please complete this quick questionnaire?  Thanks in advance!


Thank you - Robin.

Andrew Bedwell & Robin finalising communication plans for the Big C Atlantic Challenge

Robin spoke to Andrew yesterday to finalise his communication plans for the Big C Atlantic Challenge world record attempt.

The staff at Start Software are going to be Andrew's communication team, posting his updates on Facebook, YouTube and Instagram when he's away.  Start Software are the main sponsors for the project with their Alpha Tracker and Alpha Portal logos appearing on the boat and sail.

They will also be monitoring the Big C Tracker app (see https://bigctracker.app) which they have built to show Andrew's progress across the Atlantic!  You can see a video showing how the app was built here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QajFkuzCyds&t=24s

The weird thing was that roles were reversed because Robin was on the water when Andrew called... on his paddleboard!
