Pupils at Beaucroft are cycling the distance between Lands End and John O’Groats to raise money for Julia’s House and the British Heart Foundation.

One of the teachers, Duncan Russell and his brother Pete are undertaking the actual cycle this summer also to raise money for the two charities, so the pupils are going to replicate the journey using mainly, the 4 X-Dream Trixter bike simulators, they had installed last year to aid their individual fitness. Even the staff, including the site manager, office and kitchen staff and of course the teaching and support staff will put feet to the pedals and join in. The younger pupils will use their trikes and scooters as their feet don’t reach the pedals on the bigger bikes!!!

Beaucroft are fortunate to receive donations for much needed equipment throughout the year, so they feel that it is only fair that they put in the miles to raise money for other very deserving causes.

The sponsored cycle will take place in the week commencing 27^th June and the pupils and staff are hoping to cycle the 1407km over the 5 days.

Their aim is to raise in the region of £4000 which will be split between Julia’s House and the British Heart Foundation.
