Two members of the Arval
cycling team getting ready
for the 3-day challenge
Twenty employees from Arval UK, a leading vehicle leasing and fleet management company, are cycling from their office in Swindon to Head Office in Rueil, Paris, across three days.

They will be setting off from Swindon on Saturday the 13th June (at 9am) and arriving in Rueil in Paris on Monday the 15th June, a total of 225 miles (and an overnight ferry ride).
 
Raising money for The Prospect Hospice and The Finlay Foundation

Arval is hoping to raise over £10,000, which will be split over their two nominated charities - The Prospect Hospice and The Finlay Foundation.

Staff at Arval have also been doing lots of activities to raise money so far, including a dress down day, cake sale, recycling old company mobile phones, bingo, guessing sweets in a jar and selling over 120 tickets for a Race night kindly supported by Coleview Community centre.
 
CSR Manager (and part of Team Arval), Tracey Fuller commented: “Our employees at Arval are always raising money and doing things to help make a difference in our local communities, so it was no surprise to me that when one of our staff suggested a charity bike ride between our Swindon office and Head office in Paris, we had lots of people wanting to take part.”
