Inspirational staff member, Clare Hadley (Sous Chef), is fundraising for Muscular Dystrophy UK. She is planning to do an epic bike ride, canoe and trek challenge at the Lake District during July. With many charities struggling due to the current crisis, it would be great if the BGS Community can support this cause. Please donate HERE.

We spoke to Clare about her challenge, she said: I’m doing the challenge in a team of four, consisting of my 73 year old dad, husband and my son, who is currently studying at the University of Cumbria and is only a few miles away from the event.

“Starting in Penrith, we will be doing a 30-mile bike ride split into two 15-mile segments, a two-mile canoe challenge at Ullswater Lake, and a trek up Helvellyn, which is the second highest peak in England. We are raising funds for a close school friend who sadly passed away from this diseased, aged 18. 

“We would like to raise £2000, and obviously that will be tougher this year as due to the current pandemic. Your support would be most grateful.”
