On Sunday 19 February, teams from local Worcester business Sutcliffe & Co will be donning trainers and cycling helmets to raise much needed funding for Deaf Direct Worcester by taking part in the JustRide Duathlon - Arden Attack…and they need your support.
Duncan Sutcliffe, director, Sutcliffe & Co, commented: “We’ve signed up to take part in the JustRide Duathlon and are asking for support and donations to help smash our fundraising target of £800. We’ll attempt to tackle the 26km course racing in a mix of teams and individuals and raise as much as we can for Deaf Direct in the process.”
Philip Gerrard, Chief Executive of Deaf Direct, commented: “We are thrilled that Sutcliffe & Co is supporting Deaf Direct. We are both Worcester organisations making a difference in our local communities. Services for deaf people are under-resourced and it is thanks to the hard work and commitment of businesses such as Sutcliffe & Co that we can continue to help local deaf and hard of hearing children and adults. Please donate if you can – the team are being very brave by taking on this challenge! We hope everyone taking part gets a personal best and thank them for making a difference to those living with hearing loss.”
Duncan concluded: “This event is a first for our company and most of the participants - and is definitely out with many comfort zones! However, taking on this challenge to secure donations for such a great cause is giving us the incentive we need!”
