11 May 2016

The Magic Moments Charity raised over £71,000 last month as a result of its cycle from Cardiff to Colchester.

Over 40 cyclists took part in the three-day event, with 15 brave cyclists undertaking the whole run from Cardiff to Colchester - over 250 miles.

The Magic Moments Charity was established by the Spicerhaart Estate Agency chain over 10 years ago with the objective of taking terminally ill children and their families on a holiday of a lifetime to Disneyland Paris, which they would not otherwise enjoy.

Chairman of Magic Moments, Jonathan Martin, commented:

“It was a fantastic event and it was incredible to see these cyclists work so hard over the three days of the cycle. A massive thank you to everyone who took part and to our sponsors who helped to make the fundraising initiative such a great success. To raise over £70k in such a short space of time is a fantastic accolade.

“Thank you also to the Conveyancing Foundation for its fantastic support in raising over £10,000 for Magic Moments. Everyone had a great time - despite the trying circumstances - and some great friendships were formed over the three days.”

Chairman of the Conveyancing Foundation, Lloyd Davies, said:

“Everyone at the Conveyancing Foundation was delighted to take part in such a wonderful event. Thank you to all the cyclists for your friendship and encouragement throughout the three days. It was tough but we had an absolute blast at the same time. Thank you also to those members of the Conveyancing Association who made a donation at the CA Dinner following our recent AGM at the end of April. It has been fantastic to play a small part in such a fantastic achievement.”
