Foodies get on their bikes

Not content with the day to day challenges of running busy kitchens and restaurants, at H&J we like to get involved in raising money for worthy causes and if we can get fit and burn some calories at the same time, then so much the better!  This June, five of our fitter (or perhaps crazier) guys are joining the Children in Crisis London to Paris cycle ride which takes place over 3 days and covers 300 km.  Riding over the South Downs to Newhaven and then from Dieppe to Paris will be Alan Beddie, Candice Webber, Leo Rodley, James Millard and Amanda Mullard.  Between them they need to raise a minimum of £6000 which will go to Children in Crisis, a charity which works to bring education to some of the world’s poorest children allowing them to transform their lives.  Supporting local organisations, Children in Crisis helps to build schools, train teachers and delivers health education throughout Africa, Asia and Europe, offering hope to families blighted by war and poverty.

The gang are training hard at the moment and have set up a blog at www.bikingtoparis.wordpress.com which will keep up with them as they get ready for the off on June 11th and follow them over the 300 gruelling kilometres to Paris.
