We are a group of European Executives from Hilton Worldside and friends who have teamed up to cycle from London to Paris in order to raise funds for our charity, Hilton in the Community Foundation. Cycling 230 miles in three days is going to be immensely demanding, but by completing this challenge we are planning to raise £50,000 in support of HCF – well worth the sore legs!
HCF supports disadvantaged and vulnerable young people all over Europe by providing equipment, training, support and refurbishment grants to a wide range of charities, focusing on the areas of health and education. By providing this help HCF is able to give the tools, support and opportunities for young people to develop their skills and to have a brighter future. Projects range from providing support dogs to children with autism to aid their social skills and integration; to providing medical equipment for children’s hospices; to respite breaks for children with cancer; through to re-furbishing schools.
Two of our members will split the proceeds of their fundraising with two other other fantastic charities; Graham Dodd will share with the National Autistic Society and Joe Godfrey will be supporting the Oak Centre for Children and Young People at the Royal Marsden Hospital.
Please donate generously to this fantastic cause and thank you for supporting our cycle ride from London to Paris.
