We're two school friends riding to give back to the charity that helped us both secure our first internships in the City - something that seemed a long way off at the time.

The Brokerage gives kids (aged 16-18) who live in the underprivileged areas that border the City of London the opportunity to intern at top financial services firms.

Without this critical leg up, these young people would struggle to break into the professional world, and fall short of their potential.

The Brokerage has set the trajectory for thousands of young people's careers, opening their eyes and ears to options they otherwise didn't even know existed, and putting them in a position to seize those opportunities.

To ensure the Brokerage can keep on doing what they do best, we will make the perilous journey from London to Brighton in under 5 hours 'on pedals'.
