On Monday, 10th June 2019, the Staffline Foundation launched its latest
charity fundraiser, ‘Le Tour de Staffline’ with hopes of raising £60,000 for
the UK children’s charity, the NSPCC.
The mass four-day cycling event involves 15 Staffline employees, separated into two teams (North & South) who together will ride different routes across the country, both aiming to reach the end goal of Staffline’s Head Office in Nottingham, covering an accumulative distance of 719 miles.
The team representing the North are beginning their cycle at the NSPCC Glasgow office, travelling through; Moffat, Appleby-in-Westmorland, Knaresborough, Mansfield and Nottingham.
The team representing the South are beginning their cycle in Bodmin, travelling through; Okehampton, Weston-super-Mare, Cheltenham, Hinckley, Leicester and Nottingham.
Mark Underwood, Managing Director of Staffline commented, "I am extremely proud that both Staffline and the Staffline Foundation can use their size and scale to support such a meaningful charity that's not only close to my heart, but to the hearts of many."
The Staffline Foundation is part of the Staffline Group that supports annually nominated UK charities through various fundraiser events throughout the year. In 2019, the NSPCC was nominated as the Staffline Foundation’s supporting UK charity.
