Local business teaming up yet again for ‘great charity’s’ big cycling event
Staff from a local business are gearing up to take on the popular DENS Hillbuster charity cycling event for a fifth consecutive year.
A team of seven from Quanta, an award-winning recruitment consultancy based in Berkhamsted, will join hundreds of passionate cyclists at the event in Hemel Hempstead’s Gadebridge Park on Sunday 28th April.
Open to cyclists of all backgrounds and abilities, the event offers routes ranging from 25k to 120k across the sweeping Chiltern Hills and the stunning countryside of Herts, Beds and Bucks.
Quanta is a long-standing supporter of the event hosts, DENS, a charity committed to rebuilding the lives of local people facing homelessness, poverty, and social exclusion.
Head cyclist, Wendy Pearson, leads Team Quanta and their training efforts each year, joined by a stable of regular cyclists, Charlotte Clarke, Louie Gibbons, Aron Best and Denis Draia.
This year, they have two new members joining, Iain Bonner and Claire Habershon, to make it their biggest team to date.
Charlotte Clarke said: “The physical challenge, teamwork and support from the Quanta family is great. Our team is growing year on year, and hopefully we can get to ten cyclists next year!”
Claire Habershon added: “I haven’t taken part in the event before, but it is great to hear how much support there is for DENS from Quanta. I wanted to join in as I love a sporting challenge, and what better way than to know we are doing it for a great charity.”
Team Quanta will be launching a fundraising page in the coming days on the company’s LinkedIn page: www.linkedin.com/company/quanta-consultancy-services
