One Team.
One Challenge.
Our Global Challenge Powered by TRUE Unity
Together, over seven days, from 14 to 20 September 2026, we’ll travel 28,000 virtual miles by getting active in a way that works for everyone.
Why 28,000 miles? It’s the distance it would take to visit each of our 18 OCS country locations and main offices, from New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, the Philippines, UK & Ireland and India to Thailand, Saudi Arabia and Cambodia.
Simply get moving, log your activity in the Challenge app and watch it turn into movement miles.
