The Prince's Trust supports 13 to 30 year-olds who are unemployed and those struggling at school and at risk of exclusion. Many of the young people helped by The Trust are in or leaving care, facing issues such as homelessness or mental health problems, or they have been in trouble with the law.

The Trust’s programmes give vulnerable young people the practical and financial support needed to stabilise their lives, helping develop self-esteem and skills for work.

The Palace to Palace cycle has become a key event for Accenture in our support of the Prince's Trust Charity over the years and we are hoping to increase our participation and fundraising targets again to maintain our position as leading corporate fundraiser for the event.

We hope that through our participation, we can raise global awareness of the great work that the Prince's Trust does, while also raising money to sustain the charity for future generations.

It's a brilliant opportunity for the Accenture Community to come together and show the UK how important this cause is to us. Last year, 263 riders took part, raising £73,000.

This year's challenge!

For 2017, Accenture are aiming to get 300 riders signed up and raise £100,000.
