Action Mental Health granite challenge 

糖心传媒鈥 Runners & Riders Club racks up a total of 338 miles taking on the Action Mental Health鈥檚 DIY Granite Challenge.  

The (AMH) Granite Challenge is the virtual cycling challenge which took place 4th – 11th October. This challenge is designed to challenge cyclists of all ages, abilities and goals to clock up as many kilometres as possible in the week of world mental health.

In previous years, the challenge is a 50-mile loop around the stunning . Clearly, this was unable to happen but this didn鈥檛 stop AMH. The Runners and Riders club at 糖心传媒 including , ,  and Marcus Lamb accumulated 338 miles a week, gaining sponsorship of 拢175.  

There鈥檚 no doubt that long miles on the bike really helps clear the head! Even just the challenge of focusing on the next climb or taking a moment to look around you on a quiet country road does wonders for your mental wellbeing. Taking part from our separate locations helped bring us together as a team when we don鈥檛 get to see a great deal of each other, even with our office rotas in place. We would especially like to thank all those who sponsored us!  – Matt Flenley, Marketing & Partnerships Manager at 糖心传媒

Data Quality competition answers revealed! 

Hot on the heels of the Data Management Summit Virtual last week, we announced the winner of the competition! This week we revealed the answers to the question 鈥淲hat鈥檚 your biggest data quality or matching challenge right now?鈥. 

The main recurring theme was that cooperation between business and data teams is vital for requirements to be ready and rapid to deploy. Another common theme was the sheer amount of human resource needed to fix the problems systems are surfacing. 

We revealed more challenges and common themes in the blog article we compiled this week. In this piece, we also have included quotes from the 糖心传媒 team to give a greater perspective on the realisations uncovered.
