Director of Aspray Glasgow North and South, Joe McGuigan, embarks on an Epic 8-Day Charity Cycle from Vietnam to Cambodia for Marie Curie

Aspray Glasgow North and South is proud to announce that its Director, Joe McGuigan, is gearing up for an extraordinary charitable journey that will take him from Vietnam to Cambodia in an 8-day charity cycle, all in support of Marie Curie, a charity dedicated to providing care and support to people with terminal illnesses and their families.

Joe McGuigan, a dedicated and passionate advocate for those affected by cancer, has decided to embark on this challenging adventure following a personal loss caused by cancer. He aims to raise significant funds to support Marie Curie's vital work in delivering end-of-life care, giving patients and their families comfort and dignity during difficult times.

The charity cycle is set to begin on 13th October, spanning over 8 days, and will take Joe on a breathtaking journey through the captivating landscapes of Vietnam and Cambodia. This inspiring adventure is not only a personal challenge but a profound act of dedication to a cause that has touched Joe's heart deeply.

Joe's decision to participate in this epic charity cycle was profoundly influenced by his personal experience with cancer. He witnessed the devastating impact it had on his own life and that of his loved ones, motivating him to take action. He understands the importance of providing support and care to those facing terminal illnesses and recognises the incredible work Marie Curie does in this regard.

"Marie Curie is a lifeline for those in need, offering compassionate care when it's needed most," said Joe McGuigan. "I'm taking on this challenge not only to honour the memory of my dear sister but also to make a difference in the lives of those currently facing similar battles. Every pedal stroke I take will be for a greater cause."

Joining Joe on this remarkable journey is his close friend and fellow cycling enthusiast, Shaun McGrandles. Together, they plan to conquer the gruelling terrain, overcome challenges, and raise awareness for Marie Curie's invaluable work.

Aspray Glasgow North and South fully supports Joe's commitment to this charity cycle and shares his dedication to making a positive impact on the lives of people dealing with terminal illnesses. The company is excited to be part of this charitable endeavour and encourages its employees, clients, and partners to contribute to the cause.
