Race to St Christopher's Place to experience One Great Day
St Christopher’s Place will play host to the inaugural One Great Day: a community charity event being held to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital.
Taking place on Thursday 5th June, the all-day event (8am-8pm) will see local business workers, residents, shoppers and visitors to Christopher's Place pedalling to the virtual finish line in a cycle race as part of One Great Day’s major fund raising activity. Teams of three will each be required to ride two miles - the distance between Great Ormond Street Hospital and St Christopher's Place - on static bikes, kindly donated by Fitness First on Baker Street.
Situated at the heart of the West End, St Christopher’s Place can be found between Selfridges and Bond Street station where both participants and spectators can enjoy an eclectic mix of boutique shopping, international cuisine, coffee shops, bars and pubs. One Great Day offers the public a unique opportunity to engage with the local community in bustling central London whilst raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital, which treats children from across the UK with some of the rarest, most complex and often life threatening conditions.
"We are absolutely delighted to be a part of One Great Day. Hosting an event like this gives us the chance to give something back to support the wonderful work of the Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity. One Great Day is about community engagement, having fun and raising money for a great cause but it is also a fantastic opportunity for Londoners in the area to get together and enjoy some fun out of the office in one of London's prime destinations."
Margaret Newman, General Manager of St Christopher’s Place
