Venture: Kirkwood Hospice
Fundraising for Kirkwood Hospice
Story
In January, a group of Cummins employees set themselves the challenge of riding Coast 2 Coast in May. Honestly, the primary motivation was to get fit, but at the same time, it’s an opportunity for us to raise some money for our selected charity, Kirkwood Hospice.
Our route is from Whitehaven to Roker (139miles). The ride will take place 20th to 23rd May. The team consists of 11 riders, ranging from their 30s to 60s:
- Andrew Sullivan
- Jim Mcewen & Dee Mittoo (tandem)
- John Antingham
- Mat Bramall
- Matt Olivero
- Penny Bullock
- Steve Mosley
- Richard Flynn
- Rob Wimpenny
- Tom Roberts
