Cycles UK - Charity and Events
Cycles UK - Sponsorship
Cycles UK receives numerous requests each year from organisations and individuals who have decided to take part in cycle related events and rides to raise money for their charitable causes. We sincerely would love to be able to help every charity that takes the time and effort to contact us and ask for our support, as a business this is neither realistic nor practical.
We give careful consideration on an annual basis as to the charities we support, and once our annual spend has been allocated, it is unlikely we will be able to increase this allocation. We are proud to be supporting the above charities this year. All requests for sponsorship and/or donations must be made in writing to the Head Office address. Should you receive a letter from us saying we are unable to help you for this current financial year, whilst we understand your frustrations, please understand that as a company we commit as much as we feasibly can to our local community and charities and would be happy to reconsider your request for the following financial year. Unfortunately many of these requests are short notice and we would be unable to support the event to the best of our abilities. The more notice given for your supported event the more time we have to consider it.
All of us at Cycles UK wish you success in your fundraising endeavours this year, whatever they may be!
