Hi Everyone

On 5 and 6 June 2026 I will be taking on a challenging but highly rewarding endeavour – the 24-hour London to Paris cycle challenge.

This event will be supporting an incredible children's mobility charity - The Movement Centre, based in my home county of Shropshire, who work to help change the lives of children and young people with disabilities across the UK every day.

I work for Golden Bear Products and I want to support this charity ride to honour the two co-founders of our business, Christine Nicholls, who is Chair of the Toy Trust and John Hales, our much loved Chairman, who we sadly lost last year. Christine and John have always encouraged the Golden Bear team to support the Toy Trust charity events over the years and this is my thank you to them for supporting me through over 7 happy years at GB.

The challenge will see myself and nine other fellow volunteers pedal from the BTHA’s London headquarters southwards towards to Newhaven, Sussex taking an overnight ferry to Dieppe and onwards to Paris the following day, completing the challenge in 24 hours.

It's a fantastic cause and a great personal lifetime challenge for me. I would greatly appreciate your support - however large or small - in helping me and everyone involved achieve our goal.

Thank you so much

Andrew
