Enigma set for End to End Charity Motorbike Ride

ADVERTISEMENT

Enigma employees and partners are undertaking the ultimate endurance challenge weekend of Saturday 26th June 2021.

The fundraising team will ride motorbikes a distance of 984 miles from Lands End, Cornwall to John O’Groats, Scotland. To raise awareness and funds for Combat Stress, the  UK’s leading charity for veterans’ mental health, who for over a century have been helping former servicemen and women deal with issues like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety and depression.

Today they provide specialist treatment and support for veterans from every service and conflict, focusing on those with complex mental health issues related to their military service.

Throughout the United Kingdom, suicide rates continue to rise and supporting people suffering from mental health is a significant national social issue, everyone can help to prevent further deaths by providing support.

Event organiser Roy Rogers, Enigma QSHE & Energy Director, a former soldier himself in the British Army, completing several operational tour’s would like to raise awareness and funds to help fellow veterans struggling with mental health.

Roy Rogers

Roy commented: “For five generation’s my family has served in the HM Forces (Army), with 79 years’ service from my father  (27 years), two sons (27 years) and myself (25 years). My father suffered dramatically when he left the service and my youngest son who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, suffers from PTSD.

I believe in the service and support that Combat Stress provides our  Veterans and Families and was compelled to help in any way I could. The challenging ride will assist in raising funds, and I have now  been accepted as a Combat Stress County Representative to assist our people.”  

The End to End Charity Motorbike Ride 2021 challenge will test the riders spirit, strength and stamina throughout the fundraising journey. With the  team welcoming your support, donations and encouragement whilst travelling along the epic route. Riders are welcome to participate in the End to End Charity Motorbike Ride 2021 or join the ride for a section.

Several Harley Davidson motorcycle clubs including, Plymouth, Bridgewater, Birmingham,  Dundee and Clyde have committed to support sections of the ride with their members. We also appreciate your support on-route, the riders will be visiting the Enigma Industrial Services Preston, Glasgow, Dundee, Edinburgh and Newcastle depots, providing many photo opportunities to get up close with impressive new and vintage Harley Davidson motorcycles on display, children are welcome.

By recognising that the nation has a moral obligation to members of the Armed Forces and their families, to establish that they are valued members of society who should be treated fairly and respectfully as individuals.
