The Hydrasun Cycle Challenge team raise over £11k for local charity

Several months after starting the search for an elite band of athletes with a thirst for a challenge, Hydrasun assembled a team of cyclists eager to participate in the Hydrasun Cycle Challenge.

Cycling around 260 miles over 4 days from Durness in the far north of Scotland to Aberdeen, the cyclists set their sites on raising money for local charity Blue Horizon. Blue Horizon is a voluntary youth charity working to build young peoples confidence, expand horizons and realise life potential in the neighbourhoods of Kincorth and Cove, South Aberdeen.

Successfully raising over £11k Bob Drummond, Hydrasun CEO commented “As one of the team it has given me a real sense of personal achievement not only to have completed the course but also to have been involved in raising money for Blue Horizon, an extremely worthwhile and valued charity organisation which operates in neighbourhoods close to our new head quarters. We would like to thank everyone who made a donation and supported our challenge.”

A number of Blue Horizon staff and volunteers, accompanied by the Street Outreach double decker bus, welcomed the cyclists back to Hydrasun HQ. The charities Director, Eddie McKenna thanked the Hydrasun team, “On behalf of Blue Horizon I would like to thank the Hydrasun Cycle Challenge Team for their outstanding achievement in completing the challenge and for the money raised. We would also like to thank Hydrasun for their partnership - a national company, working locally to support the needs of local young people.”
