At 7.30am on the 27th August 2010, we left Trafalagar Square, London and cycled 300 miles to the Eiffel Tower, Paris on the 29th August 2010 in aid of the charity, Article 25.

Article 25 is a UK registered charity that designs and delivers buildings and structures for those in greatest need worldwide. Given the recent earthquake disasters in Haiti and Chile, this charity in is real need of financial support. If you are not aware of the charity then please visit there website at: http://www.article-25.org/ 

The majority of us work for a range of companies within the construction sector, hence why Article 25 is of relevance to us. We hope to raise a team total of £10,000 to help Article 25 build schools, bridges, clinics and homes, and more importantly rebuild lives.

Six of the team graduated from the BSc (Hons) Architectural Technology and Design and BSc (Hons) Construction and Property Management courses at the University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol. UWE is proud to support this challenge in aid of Article 25, which is an organisation that is highly relevant to the courses at UWE and to the careers that these graduates have now successfully entered. The courses at UWE are accredited by the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT) and Chartered Institute of Builders (CIOB) respectively, and these sit alongside a broad range of related architecture and construction courses accredited by leading professional bodies such as the ARB, CIBSE, RIBA, RICS, RTPI, etc.

Whether your a friend, family member, colleague and just an everyday generous person, please give what you can to help us reach the total.
