Exertis charity cycle ride raises 21k for Naomi House and Jacksplace

An annual fund raising cycle ride undertaken by Exertis directors and vendor partners has this year raised £21k for the Naomi House and Jacksplace charity.

Eight Exertis directors and representatives from Netgear and Fujitsu cycled around the Isle of Wight in a day, covering almost 100 miles and over 6,000ft of ascent.

Nick Foster, HR Director, ran a half marathon across a number of hills from Cowes to Ventnor in 2hrs 20mins.

Exertis UK MD Paul Bryan said: "It was a challenging day with a few bumps, cramps and sores, but most importantly we were able to raise a significant amount for a tremendously worthwhile cause."

Naomi House and Jacksplace are hospices for children and young people with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions.
