Transaid chief executive Caroline Barber, said: “It has been incredible to see our cycle challenges grow since we launched the first ride back in 2006, and the team is really excited to be crossing the Irish Sea for this next adventure. The transport and logistics industry are always ready to jump in the saddle to support us, and the unrestricted funds they generate open doors for us to pilot new projects.”
