Bob’s Epic Charity Cycle
Photography, and everyone who donated prizes to support the event.
On Saturday 9 August, Bob Meddings, alongside his twin brother Richard, set off on an epic 980-mile cycle from Land’s End to John o’Groats. Embarking on a remarkable journey, the brothers tackled long days, varied terrain and rolling hills as they traversed the length of mainland Britain. Over the course of 14 days, they climbed an impressive 58,000ft, reaching John o’Groats on Saturday 23 August. Luckily, the weather was on their side - incredibly, they endured just one day of rain. While Richard fundraised for Prostate Cancer UK, Bob chose the Ayrshire Hospice to benefit from his efforts, raising an incredible £8,568. Richard’s fundraising cause was especially meaningful, having worked as a Consultant Surgeon in Ayrshire for 30 years and with close links to the hospice. Congratulations and heartfelt thanks to Bob on a truly remarkable achievement and for raising such an incredible amount in support of hospice care.
Robbie’s Drams
Robbie’s Whisky Merchants recently raised an impressive £2,600 for the hospice through a fantastic raffle. We are incredibly grateful for their support and for choosing to fundraise for the hospice - every penny raised will make a real difference.
