TRACK RECORD: Across the Divide's emphasis is not only successful completion of the charity challenge from our customer’s point of view, but also that the challenges we organise are operated in a professional and high quality manner. We pride ourselves on being one of the safest operators in the charity challenge field Across the Divide brings not only a wealth of experience to an event but also a sense of humour. Our staff and medics are selected for their wealth of experience and ability to work as a team. All events have full medical backup in terms of a dedicated doctor and all staff are first aid trained. In 2002 Across the Divide was instrumental in establishing the 'Expedition Medicine Course for Medical Professionals' to provide comprehensive training for medical professionals working as expedition medical officers and medics working in the remotest corners of the world. |
