Martin Keogh
Martin's Saint-Gobain 350th Anniversary Charity Cycle
Fundraising for Macmillan Cancer Support
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit this page. I'm
really grateful for your support.
From the 10th to the 13th of July I'm pushing my
body to its limits and riding from London to Blois, in the Loire Valley,
France, with 120 colleagues from across Saint-Gobain, to celebrate the Group's
350th anniversary
(http://www.saint-gobain.co.uk/saint-gobain-350-years/).
We'll be cycling 100 miles a day for four days. This is
not going to be a comfortable summer jaunt. It is four hard days in the saddle
and one that's going to require adherence to a rigorous training
programme - one that will require sacrifices. The demands of four
torturous back-to-back days means I'll need to be training most evenings and
weekends in preparation.
It's a challenge I'm up for, though.
We're raising money for the Saint-Gobain Together
Partnership (http://www.saint-gobain.co.uk/about-us/charity-partners/) which
this year is supporting two charities that do amazing work: Macmillan Cancer
Support and the Irish Cancer Society.
The legal bit: Donating through JustGiving is simple,
fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never
sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money
directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time
and cutting costs for the charity.
