Well, its been a while since the actual Charity Bike Ride in aid of SAT animal rescue and all the money has now been collected and counted.
With all your help we have managed to raise a Grand Total of 3266.43€ !!!!
We would like to say a massive thank you to the all the riders Paul Harvey, David Blinston, Richard Cavendar (who alone raised a huge amount towards the total), Owen Desmond (thank you to all his customers at Shenanigans Irish Bar, who contributed a wonderful amount to the total) and Roy Selway who took the time to help raise funds and join us for the event. Thank you to Andrea Friedrich and Brian Warren for being our support vehicle on the day and keeping us fed and watered along the route. Thank you to Danny Wheatley at Speedystitch for the fantastic cycling tops they looked fab.
We would also like to thank our sponsors, Ibex Insurance, Villa´s Amarillas, Infinity International, Expat Pensions & Investments, SGM Solicitors, Bluemoon Solutions, SpanishInk.com, OP Group, Shenanigans Irish Bar and Cyclogical and Monty´s Bar (Algorfa)
your support has made a massive difference to the dogs.
We also thank the many people who donated to this worthy cause. It was lovely for us to visit the kennels last month to hand over the cheque and have cuddles with some of the many dogs they are currently caring for. Seeing how much work and care that goes into looking after these animals just drums it home what a great job S.A.T´s are doing and helping them to raise funds for the new kennel build is just one way in which we could show our support.
Carol and myself are extremely grateful for all the well wishes and cheers of support from our many clients and friends; without your support we never would have been able to raise such a substantial amount. We thoroughly enjoyed the challenge and we are already looking at more ways in which we can help raise funds for this and other local charities. If anyone has any suggestions for us, let us know.
