Meet the Teams
The CALM Crusaders - Nigel, Kelly & Gary
Why we decided to take part in Race For Change
"Our group of businesses are really focused on creating change through charity and community and the group want to do new things to increase awareness and attract support. The race is a fantastic and different way of doing this and to know the Cycle charity is supported is also a big factor in the decision as well."
Taps on Track - Marja, Lewis & Humza
Why we decided to take part in Race For Change
"Each member of our team has a personal motivation for wanting to take part in this unique and exciting challenge, be it to prove something to themselves or those around them, or just to support an incredible charity, shining a light on inclusivity and the threat of water."
Diverse Currents - Ben, Jade & Travis
Why we decided to take part in Race For Change
"As a team, we’re taking part in Race for Change because we believe in the power of unity and purpose. Each of us comes from different backgrounds and has faced our own challenges, but together we want to prove that diversity is a strength, not a barrier. This race gives us the chance to raise awareness about water scarcity — an issue that affects millions — while showing that people from all walks of life can come together and make a real impact. We’re here to challenge ourselves, support one another, and lead by example. Most importantly, we want to inspire the younger generation to believe that change starts with action, and that when people unite around a cause, incredible things can happen."
Navigate-HERS - Fiona, Becca & Victoria
Why we decided to take part in Race For Change
"Taking part in this challenge as a team of female construction workers, really helps shine a light on diversity in our industry.
We hope it inspires other girls who have the same dream that they can do it to! It’s a fantastic cause and a way for us to give back, spend time with good people, and challenge ourselves.
It will also enable us to raise vital funds for a dear friend who is bravely fighting cancer with so much dignity."

Team Orange - Gary, Mike & Gemma
Why we decided to take part in Race For Change
"We believe real change happens when you show up, put the effort in, and are willing to be challenged.

Sally's Angels
Why we decided to take part in Race For Change
"Our team is taking part in this race to help raise vital awareness around Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) and the growing global challenge of water scarcity. We believe deeply in unity, compassion, and supporting others, and this event gives us a meaningful way to live those values in action. By coming together, we hope to shine a light on issues that affect communities worldwide and inspire others to join us in making a positive, lasting difference."
Team BMF - Oz, Marianna & Andrei
Why we decided to take part in Race For Change
"As a team, we complement each other’s strengths: one of us is highly organised and strategic, another excels at thinking on their feet and connecting with people, and the third keeps morale high and ensures we stay focused.
Our diversity of perspectives and experience helps us collaborate effectively, make quick decisions, and adapt to whatever comes our way.
We are motivated not just by the adventure, but by the purpose behind the race, raising awareness of water scarcity, inclusivity, and supporting vital charities. We aim to embrace every challenge, respect the communities we encounter, and act as ambassadors for the causes the Race for Change supports, bringing energy, determination, and creativity to every stage of the journey."

"We are excited to take part in Race for Change because it aligns with our values.
We're excited to take on the challenge, step outside our comfort zone, and demonstrate what can be achieved when diverse people come together with a shared purpose - with a healthy competitive spirit along the way!
Alongside the challenge, raising water for water scarcity matters to us. By taking part, we hope to raise awareness of this important issue."
