Booths staff saddle up for charity bike ride

Staff from family-owned supermarket Booths will be getting on their bikes to raise money for charity.

The chain is celebrating its 175th anniversary and on Friday, staff will take up a 175km challenge for Cure Leukaemia.

Last year, Booths raised over £100,000 for the cancer charity.

Booths’ managing director Nigel Murray cycled from London to Paris last week returning to host the Booths Cyclo Classic 175 to celebrate 175 years of Booths.

Last year, Nigel rode the full Tour De France route raising funds for Cure Leukaemia, which funds clinical research roles to give access to pioneering and potentially life-saving treatments through clinical trials.

Nigel said: “We’ve got an enthusiastic team at Booths, and we wanted to put together a ride that was challenging but also inclusive in order to celebrate 175 years of Booths doing good in the community.

“The 175km ride is the full route and there are four shorter distances which can be chosen including a largely traffic-free last leg – so there’s a bit of something for all abilities.

“It’s an event to motivate people to keep active, it brings together different parts of the business from colleagues to suppliers in a team-building exercise with the added motivation of raising funds for charity. There’s also a team of runners in Le Jog and a gym-bike relay at central office. Everyone can take part in something, which will all help to raise vital funds for Cure Leukaemia.”

Cure Leukaemia fund research nurses and clinical roles at 12 blood cancer centres across the UK. These roles form the Trials Acceleration Programme network giving patients, from a catchment area of 20 miles, access to pioneering and potentially life-saving treatments through clinical trials.
