Vorboss charity cycle to Channel Live

110-mile route from London to Channel Live will raise funds for Evelina London Children’s Hospital.

Vorboss is hosting a charity cycle to Channel Live 2025. The team will set off on Tuesday 18 March from Vorboss headquarters in London and head to the rolling Chiltern hills before descending through Warwickshire and onto Birmingham’s NEC.

The 110-mile effort has been organised by Lauren Knight, senior account director at Vorboss (pictured right), to raise funds for Evelina London Children’s Hospital with an initial target of £1000.

Knight said, “Our route will cover roughly 110-miles and will support the hugely important work done every day by the amazing Evelina London Children’s Hospital. This hospital and charity are especially close to me and Paul Gibbs, as we both have children that have been under their amazing care. Thank you for donating anything you can spare!”

Paul Gibbs, head of sales, Voip Unlimited (pictured right), commented, “I am proud that we are doing this to try and raise money for Evelina London Children’s Hospital. My son Joseph was under their care for many years with a very rare and complex condition. I am grateful that through this unwavering care, Joseph has grown out of this and is now able to live a full and healthy life. 

“Lauren’s little boy is still under their care and so this charity is very dear to both of our hearts and any help that you can give would be amazing. Please donate to the mad/fantastic group that are taking part and here is to enjoying a crisp cold beverage at the end of what may be a very long day in the saddle!”

Tim Willoughby, managing director of MA Exhibitions, the organiser of Channel Live, is also taking part in the charity cycle. He added, “Channel Live is all about supporting the industry and everyone in it, so when I heard about Lauren and Paul’s efforts to raise funds for Evelina London Children’s Hospital it was a no-brainer to join them. We’re all looking forward to arriving at Channel Live in style!”
