One challenge was never enough for Team Beswicks!

A team of keen cyclists, including Simon Woodings,  Richard Saum, Gareth Wilkinson and Anne Scheland got on their bikes for charity on Sunday 20th May and cycled the 110 miles to Llangollen and back in aid of the Douglas Macmillan Hospice.

As if that wasn't enough to exhaust them, the team were joined the following weekend by Richard Simmonds, Nick Phillips,Tim Knight, Lee Yates, Kate Bloor and Claire Bellew for the 3 Peaks Challenge .

The team have now raised £2456 in aid of Douglas MacMillan Hospice, exceeding their goal of £2000 and would like to thank everyone who has supported them so far.

The Hospice needs to raise over £7 million each year and with no association with any national charity or organisation bearing a similar name, the Hospice is dependent upon the continuing generosity of our supporters.
