Cycle for Work Youth Apprenticeships

In April we cycled from Lands' End to John O' Groats. Seven local business people rode 937 miles in 10 days raising over £100k to set up local apprenticeships. Local schools took part in the challenge too with children taking part in sponsored relays on static bakes to ride 937 miles in a day. With this success behind us we're planning to continue the work to help Calderdale's young men and women get valuable work experience that will set them on the road to future success and fulfillment. read more
