My story

Updated on Sep 12th 2012 at 3:08 PM from the JustGiving API

A massive thank you to all of our sponsors and the extra push we've had over the last few days. Everyone is now ready for our trip down south today then off to France in the morning!

Cycling for the Future of British Hearts…


Each year the Village Hotel Group strives to raise money for worthwhile causes in a bid to help improve the lives of people in less fortunate situations. This year on 16th September 2012, dedicated individuals from The Village Hotel Group, will be enduring a gruelling Cycle Challenge. Our team will be tackling 420KM of roads between the 2 great Capitals, Paris and London on the world famous ‘Paris to London Challenge’, in an effort to raise money for our Charity of the Year -The British Heart Foundation.

The task at hand is no mean feat; taking just 3 days to complete and pushing even the fittest cyclist to the  limit, our 'volunteers' will have the strength and dedication to conquer the challenge and raise funds for this incredibly worthwhile charity. With this in mind we need your help and I ask that you extend your support by sponsoring us to help make this event a huge success.

In acknowledgement of our more generous sponsorship we will be co-branding the event so your company logo is acknowledged as supporting us in this worthy cause. We will be running features on the event on our website, our Just Giving page, and our facebook page which currently has over 7300 followers , allowing our  customers to see your company has supported us during this challenge.  
Any sponsorship for this event is gratefully received.
