Matthew Kirby, co-founder of The Arctic One Foundation, who as recently posted (use link below to read) will be undertaking a cycle ride in early June to raise funds for the DBF and The Arctic One Foundation jointly, has contacted us wearing his Arctic One hat.
Arctic One will be running a Summer of Sport from the 28th May to 2nd September and he’s keen to offer the opportunity to as many people as possible to take part.
You can find details below and, if you’d like more information or would like to join in, please contact Matt by emailing .
Arctic One is a fantastic charity and we do hope that you will join them at some point during the summer and support their Fundraising efforts.
We believe that everyone has the ability to enjoy sport in some way and that everyone should be given the opportunity to take part in sport. The Arctic One Foundation
