Three Domino’s colleagues have covered nearly 1,000 miles in support of Teenage Cancer Trust.

Jason Hunt, Josh Wilson and Peter Blockley recently cycled from John O’Groats in Scotland to Land’s End in Cornwall, along with a staggering 46,000 feet of climbing.

Raising over £17,000 for Teenage Cancer Trust, the money will help continue providing specialist nurses, youth workers and hospital units for young people living with cancer.

Peter Blockley, one of the Pizza Peddlers riders and from Leyland, added: “Taking part in this challenge has been an unforgettable experience.

“The support from our colleagues, friends and the wider Domino’s community has kept us going through every tough moment.

“We’ve laughed, we’ve struggled, and we’ve seen some of the most beautiful – and brutal -parts of Britain from our saddles. I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved together.”

The physically demanding ride marked a decade of partnership between Domino’s and Teenage Cancer Trust, with the pizza joint raising more than £8.5 million over the years.

Sam Hughes-Smith, Corporate Partnership Manager at Teenage Cancer Trust, said: “The money the team has raised will be truly life-changing for so many young people with cancer.”
