A little while back we got asked by the Clatterbridge Cancer Charity if we would like to get involved in their corporate challenge. This
involves us taking £50 and turning it into £1000 or more. So far, we have
manged to pass the £500 mark and next on our list of events is a sponsored
bikeathon.
The Corporate Challenge
The Clatterbridge Cancer Charity is
currently trying to raise funds for a social room and roof terrace in their new
Liverpool hospital. Their aim is to lessen the sense of isolation cancer
patients can often experience during their treatment. Their target is £40,000
and hopefully we at Transglobal Express can help them achieve their goal.
The Bikeathon
One of our main fundraising event ideas was
a bikeathon and seeing as we have two offices, one in Bromborough in the UK,
and another in Kelsterbach, Germany, we thought it would be a good idea to
cycle the distance between the two offices. According to Google maps, this is
approximately 697 miles by bike.
Currently, we have 28 volunteers prepared
to take it in turns, on an exercise bike, to achieve the distance. We will be
starting the challenge on Monday 27th March and will be cycling
throughout normal working hours (8am-6.30pm) of that week.
Our Managing Director has also pledged that
Transglobal Express will match whatever we raise.
