TDK Corporation is pleased to announce that two TDK-Lambda UK employees will be embarking on a charity cycle ride from John O’Groats to Land’s End. Starting on June 19th 2015, the two riders aim to complete the 916 mile endeavour in nine days. All money raised will go to Cancer Research UK.

TDK-Lambda’s Richard Davey (Product Quality Development Engineer) and Paul Dyer (Trainee Electronics Technician) are riding the entire distance without the accompaniment of a support vehicle. Richard and Paul are both very keen cyclists, who regularly participate on many routes, sportives and fund raising events.

“Cancer is a disease that will somehow affect everyone, so we set ourselves a target to raise one thousand pounds to help the research in fighting the disease. Any donations are gratefully received with thanks from both of us” the pair stated on their sponsorship page www.justgiving.com/Paul-Dyer-Richard-Davey.

With just over a month to go the pair are reaching the halfway mark with 39% of their target met, with donations coming from friends, family and co-workers.

Cancer Research UK is the world’s leading charity dedicated to beating cancer through research.
