Yesterday, the Brookbanks team came together for an unforgettable day of cycling, community, and charity at the Brookbanks Sportive 2025. Held in the scenic Chilterns around Watlington, the event offered four route options: 14 miles, 33 miles, 57 miles, and 83 miles catering to everyone from casual riders to seasoned cyclists.
The atmosphere was electric as clients, employees, and supporters gathered at the Watlington Cricket Club Pavilion, ready to take on the challenge and raise funds for a cause close to our hearts. Thanks to the incredible generosity and enthusiasm of all involved.
We are proud to announce that we raised £16,384, with money still rolling in for the Lingen Davies Cancer Fund, a charity dedicated to improving cancer prevention, treatment, and support across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, and Mid Wales.
This year’s fundraising was especially meaningful, inspired by the journey of our own Danny Lloyd-Jones, Associate Utilities Director and Trustee of Lingen Davies, whose personal battle with cancer has motivated our commitment to supporting this vital organization.
A Huge Thank You
We extend our heartfelt thanks to:
From feed stations stocked with snacks to scenic countryside views and a shared sense of purpose, the Brookbanks Sportive 2025 was more than just a bike ride it was a celebration of resilience, community, and giving back.
We look forward to making next year’s event even bigger and better. Until then, thank you for riding with us and supporting Lingen Davies.

At Brookbanks, our people are at the heart of everything we do. From day one, new team members are welcomed into a collaborative, supportive environment where they feel they truly belong. It’s not just about the work it’s about the culture, the camaraderie, and the shared ambition to grow together.
