‘Pier to Pier Challenge’ to raise money for Cancer Research UK

To help the business raise £100k for Cancer Research UK by the end of 2013, Hamptons International’s South East region, which has a branch in Horsham, has set the challenge for Hamptons representatives to cycle the distance between Brighton Pier and Worthing Pier as many times as possible.

The total distance between the piers is eleven miles and 25 cyclists have pledged their distances ranging from eleven miles through a 110 miles, (10 legs of the journey).

The cyclists will all leave together from Brighton Pier at the start time of 9.45am.

Each member of the team has fundraising target of £100 which should raise a total amount of £2,500 on completion of the challenge. As a company Hamptons International has raised over £50,000 towards their target which will go towards vital research for the charity.

Karen Standing, Regional Lettings Director of Hamptons South East Region said: “We’re really excited about this forthcoming challenge, it is a great initiative involving the entire region.

On the day there will be three Hamptons International pit stops, one located at Brighton Pier, another at the half way point at Shoreham footbridge and a final one at Worthing Peir.

“For all those local to the area we encourage you to come down, join in the fun and cheer on our cyclists! I am sure it will be a great day and offer a sense of achievement for all involved.

“Overall it is fantastic opportunity to raise as much money as possible for our chosen charity, Cancer Research UK!”
