Foundation of Light COO to sleep out at Stadium of Light to help tackle homelessness
Foundation of Light Chief Operating Officer Jamie Wright will join bosses from companies across the North East to take part in CEO Sleepout.
Grafton have helped us select this year’s route which has proved to be very popular. They provide us with financial support and without it, we wouldn’t be able to do challenges like this. Every year when the challenge is over, the first question that gets asked is 'where to next year?' For me they are so much more than sponsors, they get heavily involved organising and putting a team into the challenge.
Jemma Garrett, Foundation of Light Events ManagerThe challenges have become a popular fixture on the Foundation's calendar of events, seeing riders take on unique and memorable cycling routes. Limited places are available for riders to join us for four days of cycling through stunning scenery along the coast, valleys and high up in the mountains. The route will mostly be on quiet country roads but each day will offer variety. A deposit of £250 and a fundraising pledge of £1,400 is required. Included is the use of a mechanic, support vehicles, accommodation, transport (flights and transfers), food and drink (no alcohol), celebration dinner, bespoke cycle jersey and cap, and a bike check.
