Charity Cycle Ride in Support of Hospitality Action Week



The Michael Caines and Brownsword Hotels team cycle from Gidleigh Park to Abode Manchester, all in Piccadilly - 17 May 2012.

In support of Hospitality Action Week on Thursday 17th May 2012, team members from ABode hotels, Michael Caines Restaurants and Brownsword Hotels will cycle the 340 mile distance between Gidleigh Park and ABode Manchester.

Starting at 7am outside Abode Manchester, the distance will be covered on two static Gym cycles with a live map displaying the miles cycled throughout the day. Everyone will cycle for 30 minutes to cover the 340 mile distance “passing by ABode Exeter, the Bath Priory, Lower Slaughter Manor, Buckland Manor and ABode Chester along the way!” There will be staff with collection buckets hoping the generous commuters and shoppers in Manchester will support this great cause.

Christophe Hesbert, General Manager of Abode Chester says, “During Hospitality Action week and whilst Michael Caines’ “At Your Discretion” Restaurant continues, we wanted to drive further fundraising events to help raise awareness and to show support. Hospitality Action is the only charity that represents our industry and as such provides a vital support network for the people that work within it. We aim to raise £1000 on the day.”

The funds raised will make a real difference to those within the hospitality industry who face their own serious challenges on a daily basis.
