Creative Peddlars Are Kids At Heart

Milton Keynes based PR and marketing company Solution Factors and graphics agency Bobbyflash Design have joined forces to put their own spin on charity fundraising for 2008, with their Kids at Heart cycling team.

The wheels were set in motion on Sunday with the annual 54-mile London to Brighton bike ride – in aid of the British Heart Foundation (BHF). Led by Solution Factors senior manager Natalie Bradley and Bobbyflash director Stuart Bradley, the five-strong Kids at Heart team navigated country roads, and the infamously steep Ditchling Beacon, before coasting across the finish line.

“This is the third year that I have taken part in the London to Brighton ride and I am grateful to have also been invited to join Solution Factors for the Extra Mile Challenge in September,” commented Stuart. “Not only will this be a great opportunity to raise more funds for BHF, but also for Leighton Buzzard based charity Kids Out, who provide fantastic positive experiences for disadvantaged children and young people.”

The Kids at Heart team will change slightly for the 500-mile French relay to include Solution Factors director, Rachael Bonfield, as well as partner Derek Bean.  The team plan to raise a minimum of £2,500 for their chosen causes.

“Solution Factors’s and Bobbyflash’s services complement each other and we often work as a team in the business world. We hope that getting in gear and fundraising together will encourage local businesses to dig deep for these worthwhile charities,” concluded Natalie.
