Story
We have teamed up with Travelling Light and Brandon Trust for a third successive year!
This year it will be a gruelling 100 miles. Charity Really Hurts!
Taking place on 13th August 7:30am @ Vanguard Self Storage, 22 Church Road, Bristol BS59JY.
Want to join for some or part of the ride?
Option 1: 100 Mile Route
If you are a keen cyclist and/or are up for a challenge, join us for the full 100-mile route, departing from Vanguard Self Storage at 8am. A circular route out through South Bristol and around North Somerset. Road & gravel tracks.
Option 2: 10 Mile Route
Alternatively, join us for the ‘fun ride’ – approximately 10-mile section of the route along The Strawberry Line. Meet us at Yatton railway station at 10am.
The main reason for this charity ride is because I have family members that have Autism. My colleague Paul, who is also doing the charity ride, is an uncle to 4 in his family who have autism.
Local charity Travelling Light Theatre Company run a youth theatre group that provides a vital space for connection and creativity for young people with disabilities.
Each week disabled young people enjoy sessions packed with play and imagination. They express themselves, have fun, make friends and learn new skills in drama, music and storytelling in a supported and friendly environment.
We want to show our appreciation for the valuable work they do with these young people and help to make a difference by supporting them with this charity ride. The money raised through this campaign will help them continue to provide creative opportunities for children and young people in the local community.
Brandon Trust play-schemes have been a fantastic support in order for my family to have a rest bite.
As this service has been so rewarding I wanted so show my gratitude and make a difference so Brandon Trust can support other families too.
We work for a brilliant company that encourages us to work with local charities. These charities are close to our hearts. Vanguard Self Storage have supported us every step of the way!
