Story

On the 11th & 12th June 2022, a group of six riders from Acorn Recruitment and Edenstone Homes will be attempting to cycle 206 miles from Holyhead to Cardiff Bay!

Cycling 100 miles in a day is a big undertaking in itself, but when that is being done on two consecutive days with a combined elevation of 17,000 feet, it’s going to be particularly tough.

We will be fundraising for Acorn's charity of the year for 2022, Mind. The reason we chose this charity is that it aligns with many of our values - it also won the vote as the charity Acorn employees would like to support this year.

1 in 4 people experience mental health issues, and we want to raise money to help those suffering to get the support they need.

It’s Acorn’s 30th birthday in 2022, and we intend to celebrate it throughout the year, but we want to start by giving back.
