They've done it! Thirty fabulous Arkriders have cycled 500 miles through five countries in five days – and their fundraising has taken the group’s total past the £250,000 milestone.

The Arkriders have been at the heart of the community campaign to raise £5million for a new NHS cancer treatment centre in Basingstoke – and now the 2019 peleton have piled on the miles, and the pounds, in the latest formidable feat.

It was a fantastic turn out this morning to see the 30 riders who are taking part in the 5 Countries 5 Days cycling to raise funds for Ark Cancer Centre Charity.

The team will cycle a distance of 453 miles and climb 13,769 ove the net 5 days. 

This fantastic group of cyclists have already raised £42,275 and counting!

We wish them all good luck and hope they have a fantastic time.   Especially our own Mark Jones who is also taking part.  The office will be quiet this week!!

It may have been a draw but Ark Cancer Centre Charity was definitely a winner when teams from two Basingstoke businesses took part in a charity football match.

Colleagues from Sainsbury’s Distribution Depot, in Houndmills, took on staff from the Royal Mail, in Priestley Road, in a match held at Brighton Hill Playing Fields.

The game saw £320 raised for Ark Cancer Centre Charity, and it ended with honours even at 2-2 – Danny Manton scoring twice for Sainsbury’s and Brian Cooke and Harrison West netting for Royal Mail.
