Back in the Saddle: 2026 Envision Cycle Challenge

Yes, never say never... After a pause in 2025, we're gearing up again. In just 4 weeks we're tackling 220+ miles (and way too many hills) from York to Cambridge over 3 days, and we need your help to make it count.

Here's why we're doing this.

This spring, Pauline volunteered as a business mentor to a team of Year 9 students through Envision. As many of you know, Envision is a charity that partners with schools to give young people the essential skills and confidence they need to thrive in education, employment, and life. Over three months, she watched a group of teenagers grow in real time: building confidence, learning to work as a team, and channeling their creativity into an award-winning baking club they built from scratch.

That's the difference Envision makes. Not abstract. 100% visible, in the space of a school term.

Now it's our turn to put in the miles. Three days, changing landscapes (read: hills, and then more hills), and a route that will test us, all to help Envision reach more young people who deserve that same shot at growth.

Every pound goes further: we're personally contributing £200 for every £1,000 raised, so your donation is already being matched before it even reaches Envision.

If you've ever seen a young person surprise themselves with what they're capable of, you already know why this matters. Please consider chipping in, whatever you can give will help us get closer to the top of those hills, and closer to our personal fundraising goal of £7,000 and team goal of £150,000.

Thank you, as ever, to our friends, colleagues, and family for being in our corner.
