Kingswood to Paris and back 600km Charity Ride

關於此捐贈機會

Kingswood to Paris for Dandelion Time 

This September, Victor Naggie, Vincent Cheung, James Newman, Lee Mason, Sal Agowun and Ryan Dunn will take on an incredible cycling challenge in support of Dandelion Time through the Fidelity Cares programme.

Starting from the Fidelity Kingswood office (just outside of London), the team will cycle to the Paris office and back, covering an impressive 400 mile round trip over five days from 18–22 September 2026.

And if that doesn't sound challenging enough, Day 4 includes a gruelling 120-mile ride – a distance longer than many stages of the Tour de France. It will be the toughest day of the journey, testing both endurance and determination as the team pushes themselves for a fantastic cause.

Every penny goes to Dandelion Time

The team are personally funding the entire trip themselves, meaning that 100% of every sponsorship donation will go directly to Dandelion Time and FIL generously grant match the donations raised which will double the positive impact for the vital work they do supporting children and families affected by trauma, abuse and neglect.

The Unsung Hero
