Pedal power raises over £1000
18/09/2007 -
Keen cyclists Nicky and Mike Holgate decided to celebrate their 50th birthdays and Pramacare’s 25th anniversary with a 700 mile sponsored cycle ride. The Bournemouth couple cycled from Bilbao in Spain and up through France before sailing back home to Poole.
“We decided to raise funds for local home care charity Pramacare”, says Nicky, who has worked for the charity for the past 10 years. “Pramacare looks after around 700 people in Bournemouth, Poole and East Dorset each week, so we cycled one mile for each of them.”
Mike adds “We were delighted to reach our target of £1000, which will go towards care fee subsidies which Pramacare offers to those that it helps who are on reduced incomes.”
