Swiss cycling challenge launched in Wilmslow

March 1, 2019

Seashell Trust launch Swiss cycle challenge

They were the stars of the show at the glamorous launch for Seashell Trust’s Cycle Switzerland challenge.

Nik Boxall, Dealer Principal at Aston Martin Wilmslow and keen triathlete said, “We were delighted to be able host this evening for Seashell Trust.  As a local charity caring for some of the country’s most profoundly disabled children we wanted to do out bit to help them recruit cyclists and raise as much money as they can.”

  • With that goal in mind, the Synergy team hosted a Charity Sports Day at Macclesfield Rugby Club on Thursday 10th July with local businesses taking part in a variety of nostalgic sports day games, from egg & spoon and sack races, to tug of war and beanbag toss. The friendly competition was rounded off with a charity raffle and BBQ. In a heartfelt show of community spirit, the event and backing from local businesses raised £3,402.11 for MyCWA. The event proved to be a great success with participants. Hannah Shaw of SAS Daniels commented, “it was a really great event, our team all had a lot of fun and we’d happily attend again!”. But more importantly, the event shone a light on the essential services MyCWA provides. Yasmin Bentley, Director of Synergy Recruitment, said: “When we heard about the funding cuts, we knew we had to do something to help. The response from the local business community has been incredible, and after such a brilliant day, we’re already planning to make our Charity Sports Day an annual event!” Funds raised at the sports day event brings Synergy’s total raised for MyCWA this year to £3,872, with more events still to come.
