Members of staff from Meridian Trust (previously known as CMAT) are set to cycle 100 miles at 09:00 on 11th June to raise vital funds for Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice.
The route, which starts at Nene Park Academy in Peterborough and finishes at North Cambridge Academy, will see staff cycle past the following academies within the Trust:
- Nene Park Academy
- Sawtry Village Academy
- Sawtry Junior Academy
- The Ferrers School
- Sharnbrook Academy
- Oakley Primary Academy
- Lincroft Academy
- Great Ouse Primary Academy
- Stratton Upper School
- Swavesey Village College
- Hatton Park Primary School
- Martin Bacon Academy
- Northstowe Secondary College
- Histon and Impington Brook Primary School
- Histon and Impington Park Primary School
- North Cambridge Academy
The challenge was set by Nene Park Academy Principal, Robin Grover – a keen cyclist who wanted to create a 100-mile route that took in as many of the academies within the Trust as possible.
Also taking part in the challenge will be Meridian Trust CEO, Mark Woods and Executive Principal, Andy Daly – as well as other staff from Nene Park Academy including, Michelle Petersen, Paul Treliving, Phil Sammons and Tim Amos.
The challenge is also part of the Trust’s ongoing ten-year anniversary celebrations.
Funds are being raised via the Team Bacon JustGiving page in memory of Martin Bacon – the founder and former CEO of CMAT who sadly passed away nine years ago.
Mark Woods, CEO of Meridian Trust said, “We are so excited to take on our 100-mile cycling challenge in memory of Martin. The day will be a time to reflect on what we’ve achieved as a Trust, as well as raise money for an important cause. Please do show your support and donate if you can.”
All money donated to the Team Bacon JustGiving page will be sent to Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice where Martin received his palliative care in his final few weeks.
