Next sponsorship challenge launched! 350-mile Bournside Bike-a-thon

10 Mar

We are pleased to announce Bournside’s next student fundraiser in support of our Charity of the Year, The 4Ed Foundation — a 350-mile Bike-a-thon taking place on Wednesday 25th and Thursday 26th March — the final week of this term!

Over the two days, students and staff, competing in three dual-House teams, will work together to complete 350 miles on three static bikes. Live mileage updates will be shared throughout each day. This distance mirrors the major charity rides completed in support of the foundation, established by former professional rugby player Ed Slater following his diagnosis with Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

Team Line-Up

  • Bike 1: Attenborough House & Frank House

  • Bike 2: Owens House & Hawking House

  • Bike 3: Parks House & Rowling House

Our goal is to unite as a community, raise awareness of MND, and fundraise for the 4Ed Foundation, which supports families affected by MND.
