Story

Our wonderful BGL Group employees who work across all of our
various businesses (BGL Golf, Adventure Leisure & Ninja Leisure) are taking up the challenge to cycle from BGL Group Support Office (located at Burhill Golf Club in Surrey) all the way to Paris! The journey will take over three days and will begin in September to raise much needed money for the British Red Cross Ukraine Appeal.

Total distance to be covered will be in the region of 300km! Many of the participants have little long distance cycling experience, so this will be a real challenge for us!

DAY ONE - Starting on Friday 2nd September early morning from Burhill Golf Club, the team plans to cycle circa 100km to catch the ferry at Newhaven. 

DAY TWO - Saturday 3rd September will see the team cycle a further 120km

DAY THREE - Sunday 4th September will be the final push to Paris circa 75km for a well earned beer or two!

Please help in supporting us via a donation however big or small, its all appreciated and will be going to a great cause.

As you know, the humanitarian situation is increasingly dire and desperate. Millions of people have no safe place to call home. More than 2.5 million have already left Ukraine, while countless more are still trapped underground, taking cover from the shelling, and desperate for a safe escape.

Red Cross teams have been working around the clock to get critical care to those who need it most, both in Ukraine and its bordering countries. But with recent freezing temperatures, and ongoing violence, an enormous number of people urgently need help right now.
