CADS - Wolverhampton

Since our last update, CADS friend, colleague and cycling superhero, Kev Baldwin has made tremendous progress on his charity cycle ride around the UK mainland coast. Kev, who is riding to raise money for Cancer Research UK is now well on his way towards John o’Groats and visiting Dunnett Head, which marks the most Northerly point on his travels. This achievement marks a mentally pivotal moment on the trip for Kev, as he explains: “This morning was a big psychological turning point for me as I’m now heading East along the north coast for a couple of days then it’s south towards home. I always knew this would be the halfway point psychologically and not at half the distance.”

The donations continue to add up over on Kev’s fundraising page (link below) with the total now standing at £11,850.50. A massive thank you to everyone who has contributed to this great cause. CADS colleagues are still doing their bit to support Kev’s efforts by clocking up the miles in our own fundraising challenge. Two teams of colleagues (group 1 and group 2) are taking part in various fitness activities such as cycling, running, walking, or swimming. If we can raise £1K, CADS will donate a further £1K to add to Kev's Cancer Research fundraising total. CADS’ Testing Engineer Jonathon Orland’s group 1 are still ahead of CADS’ Head of Operations, Clare Montgomery’s group 2. The mileage totals now stand at 2693 miles for group 1, with group 2 on 2459 miles.

If you’re taking part in the CADS fundraiser (or even if you’re not but still want to show your support to Kev), please get your family and friends involved by asking them to donate whatever they can to Kev's fundraising page (link below) and adding the word "CADS" in brackets when they make a donation, so we know it's in support of CADS team efforts. All money raised goes towards Kev's total.


As always, you can follow Kev's journey on Instagram - and if you can, please donate whatever you can in support of his fantastic efforts at:

Our colleague and two wheeled cycling hero Kevin Baldwin continued on his mammoth charity bike ride this week by covering a huge amount of ground along the beautiful Welsh coast. Kev who was recently diagnosed with Prostate Cancer, is cycling around the coast of mainland UK to raise money for Cancer Research UK. Currently riding clockwise around Anglesey on stage 25 of his journey, Kev is keeping us all entertained with tales of the road, snaps of the scenery and even the odd song or two over on his Instagram page (link below). Here, Kev is pictured feeding some Alpacas while on an overnight stop in the depths of the Welsh countryside.

In support of Kev’s fundraising efforts, CADS’ colleagues are undertaking our own fundraising challenge with two teams of colleagues (group 1 and group 2) taking part in various fitness activities such as cycling, running, walking, or swimming. If we can raise £1K, CADS will donate a further £1K to add to Kev's Cancer Research fundraising total. This week has seen the gap between the two groups narrow to just 27 miles with CADS’ Testing Engineer Jonathon Orland’s group 1 on 1762 miles, and Group 2 led by CADS’ Head of Operations, Clare Montgomery on 1789 miles. Well done to both groups for continuing to clock up the miles in one of the hottest weeks of the year so far.
