Programme Spotlight: Wildcats
In the first of our monthly programme spotlights we are taking a closer look at Wildcats, the FA-funded programme aimed at engaging girls aged five to 11 in football.
The International Cycle Challenge is the high point of our fundraising calendar and we’re delighted to announce next year’s route from Dubrovnik to Split. We’re very proud to announce yet another new destination and the scenery looks fantastic. I’d like to mention a huge thank you to event sponsors Grafton Group plc and OSE European, who make this event possible every year.
Jemma Garrett, Foundation of Light Events ManagerCommenting on why Grafton Group plc have sponsored the event for seven years running, Gavin Slark, Chief Executive Officer added: “I think (it’s) the fact that the Foundation does so much brilliant work in the local community and also the fact that all the people that have done the ride over the last seven years, we’ve created our own little cycling community that really is very special to the Foundation.” To take part in the event cyclists are asked to pay a non-returnable £250 deposit and raised a further £1,400. The event is strictly limited to 40 places allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. If you missed out on the Croatian Coastal Cycle Challenge information evening, the details and route can be viewed here.
