Team Bacon is made up of a number of people, who have and continue to undertake numerous challenges in memory of Martin Bacon, who died in 2013 from a brain tumour. We're raising money for the incredible hospice, Thorpe Hall, where he received his palliative care in his final few weeks.

Martin was an inspirational head teacher at Swavesey Village College and co-founder of the Meridian Trust (formerly CMAT). He is greatly missed by his family, friends, staff and students.

Martin's legacy lives on in all who knew him and we are passionate about supporting the incredible work of Sue Ryder in his memory. Please donate if you can!

Upcoming challenges: 

Members of staff from the Meridian Trust including Mark Woods will be cycling 110 miles on 11th June. The team will start their ride at Nene Park Academy in Peterborough and pass by 11 of the Trust's schools on the route.
