On the 27 July 2011, Chickenshed’s CEO Jane Paterson-Todd and her partner Richard Fullerton cycled 300 miles from Crystal Palace in London to the Eiffel Tower in Paris to raise money for Chickenshed’s new minibus.

Jane had the most fantastic experience! An amazing challenge, a very well organised trip and great support from the Skyline team and fellow cyclers.

Over the 4 day cycle, Jane and Richard raised a fantastic £11k for the Chickenshed minibus appeal.

“I am so pleased it was so worthwhile and the money raised surpassed both Richard and my expectations. Thank you to everyone who supported us. Watch this space we have a big challenge up our sleeves for next year! We had a fantastic fun and extremely exhilarating experience. Worth every mile, every training session” Jane Paterson-Todd
