Celebrating its 14th year in the saddle, Prologis UK, a logistics property owner, developer and investor, has raised over £35,000 for charity through its annual cycle challenge. This year’s event, which took place on 14 September, took participants either 100 miles or 100 kilometres around the Northamptonshire countryside.
With over £400,000 raised since the event’s inaugural running, this year’s Prologis 100 saw over 130 people from Prologis UK, partners and friends of the brand take part to support three UK charities:
Breast Friends is run entirely by volunteers who have all been affected by breast cancer, offering support to those diagnosed with cancer on their journey. The volunteers work tirelessly to provide a much-needed source of comfort and support for those affected by the disease.Battens Disease Family Association is on a mission to help support everyone affected by Battens Disease, a rare childhood neurological disorder. The charity works to improve the quality of life of those affected and funds research into treatments, as well as providing support for families and carers. LandAid, a nationwide organisation that brings together the property industry to help raise money to support charities that provide lifechanging services for young people who are, or have been homeless, or at risk of homelessness in the future.
Paul Weston, regional head of Prologis UK, said: “Every year we hold the Prologis 100 and every year we are able to support a number of great charities doing really important work. This year was no different and as always, I feel incredibly privileged to be part of an organisation that puts such an emphasis on charitable work and giving back.
“From myself and the whole of Prologis UK, a massive thank you to all our sponsors and well done to everyone who took part.”
