Hitachi Information Control System Europe (formally The Railway Engineering Co. Ltd) have been raising money through their challenges for several years now. This year is no different. We have chosen to support Stepping Stones as a small local charity to us, which circumstance has meant that one of our team's little girl needs the services of.
Stepping Stones is an Opportunity Group for children with special needs in the West Wiltshire area. “Special Needs” being the term we use for identifying children who will benefit from specific therapy and support to help meet their potential. Children from birth to five, with varying levels of need attend the group. Stepping Stones operates as the District Specialist Centre for West Wiltshire.
The challenge this time is a bike ride from Gloucester Docks to Bradford On Avon. The route is a just under 60 miles and, initially following the A38 from Gloucester to Bristol, then taking the Bristol and Bath Railway Path to Bath before the final leg of the Bath Two Tunnels path and the K&A Canal back to Bradford On Avon.
A shorter route is also on offer from Bitton Station on the Bristol and Bath Railway Path back – a still reasonable distance of 16 miles.
The ride is planned for Saturday 24th October, departing Gloucester at 9:30, and departing Bitton at 14:30.
With the ride completed, a write up and pictures can be found here.
