Haymarket takes on its biggest fundraiser yet for its UK charity partner, Skylarks
Category: Social Responsibility (Charity/ Volunteering/Environmentalism)
More than 20 Haymarket cyclists have raised nearly £40,000 cycling from London to Paris
On Friday 9 September, more than 20 cyclists left Haymarket's Twickenham HQ and embarked on the start of their fundraising ride to Paris.
Cycling 200 miles over two days, the team endured countless hills and too much rain. But, fuelled by one another's support, a van full of baguettes and ultimately, that they were doing this to raise money for our charity partner, Skylarks, they eventually reached the Eiffel Tower on Saturday afternoon.
They have raised £38,500, smashing the original fundraising target.
All the cyclists gathered in the car park of Haymarket's Twickenham office, bright and early on Friday 9 September.
Then, it was ready to begin the journey!
200 miles later, on Saturday 10 September, they made it!
