What is the background?​​

Always Aim High Events, founded in 2010, is a local business that organises and promotes outdoor sporting events in Gwynedd. The events attract a community of amateur and professional athletes from far and wide and contribute significantly to the local tourism industry. ​

What was the support?​

The company was eager to have a new events hub which would include offices, a warehouse and a community room. With investment from the fund the new company headquarters was built on the Glyn Rhonwy Industrial Estate, Llanberis.​

The building was designed by architects Russell Hughes Ltd, and construction began in September 2024 with the company moving to its new offices in March 2025

What difference has this made?

The new hub called ‘Camu i’r Copa’ – will be the focal point of the Always Aim High Events’ activities, offering a meeting room and storage space for the community to use.​

The company wanted to use local materials to create a sustainable building powered by solar energy. The design makes the most of the stunning Snowdonia backdrop, with windows on the whole of one side of the structure. 90% of the project’s budget has been spent with local suppliers, showcasing the area’s rich talent and resources.

As the company looks forward to the upcoming season, the new office is a testament to local collaboration and the power of investment in the community. Because of the development the company will be able to continue to play an important part of the tourism and outdoor sports economy in the area.​
