Challenge Adventure Charities - 1Decathlon 2 Fellowes 3 Charities - 2012 Sporting Challenge · 21 February 2012 ·

For 25 years, we have organised cycle events, mainly in Europe. We have raised a huge £4,378,361 mainly for cancer, heart and other medical research. We pride ourselves that EVERY PENNY that has been raised has been paid to charity - our participants paying the full fees for event entry themselves.

<p> <p style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">This year I am helping to raise money for charity by taking part in 10 different events over the next year. An event called 123Decathlon, which is being run by one of my directors from my work.</p> <p style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">The goal is to raise &pound;100,000 for 3 worthy charities. Every penny counts and all donations made to this page are automatically linked to the 123Decathlon justgiving total fund. So please dig deep and donate.</p> <p style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">The events are open to anyone so if anyone wishes to find out more the mission statement is below followed by a link to the main website.</p> <p style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">Thank you&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;"><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">"To celebrate the Olympics coming to London we have created our own exciting sporting event &ndash;&nbsp;</span><em style="line-height: 1.5em; font: inherit;">1 Decathlon</em><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">, which will take place across the year to raise much needed funds for&nbsp;</span><em style="line-height: 1.5em; font: inherit;">3 special local charities</em><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">&nbsp;&ndash; The Rainbow Centre, The Rose Road Association and Wessex Cancer Trust. Our aim is to raise &pound;100,000 to be shared by the charities and we invite you, your family, friends and work colleagues to join us in any number of the ten events detailed in this brochure. We would also like to invite you to raise sponsorship as we attempt to reach our &pound;100,000 target, be it individually or as a group or team. We recommend that you aim to donate or raise through sponsorship a minimum of &pound;20.12 per person. This can be given through our just giving website at</span><a style="line-height: 1.5em; color: #172983; text-decoration: none;" href="http://www.justgiving.com/BruceAElkins">www.justgiving.com/BruceAElkins</a><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">. To participate in an event&nbsp;there will be a &pound;10 per person entry fee for each event to cover the costs associated with running the events, this ensures that 100% of your donation/sponsorship goes directly to the charities.</span></p> <p style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">Whether you&rsquo;re an experienced sports person or someone who doesn&rsquo;t perhaps regularly participate in sport, there is something for everyone &ndash; simply look through the brochure and find the activity that suits you best. There is no limit on the number of events that you can take part in and there will also be the chance to spectate at certain venues.</p> <p style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">These events are a fantastic way to perhaps take part in a new sport for the first time, organise a corporate event involving your staff or maybe enhance your sporting skills, whilst raising money for&nbsp;<em style="font: inherit;">3 wonderful charities</em>&nbsp;supporting local people in our community. We hope you will be able to join us &ndash; thank you."</p> <p class="list1_hdr" style="margin-top: 10px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; font-family: sans-serif; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px;">The 2 Fellows:</p> <ul class="list1" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 12px; background-color: #ffffff; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"> <li style="list-style-type: none; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><strong style="font: inherit; font-weight: bold;">Bruce Elkins</strong>, Director&nbsp;<a style="color: #172983; text-decoration: none;" title="CW Fellowes Limited" href="http://www.cwfellowes.com/">CW Fellowes Limited</a></li> <li style="list-style-type: none; list-style-position: initial; list-style-image: initial; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><strong style="font: inherit; font-weight: bold;">Peter Harding</strong>, Director&nbsp;<a style="color: #172983; text-decoration: none;" title="Questmap Limited" href="http://www.questmap.net/">Questmap Limited</a>&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p><a href="http://www.cwfellowes.com/123/">http://www.cwfellowes.com/123/</a></p> </p>
