STAFF from Celtic Haven Resort in Lydstep, might be used to a more relaxed atmosphere, but this month they will be taking on a gruelling 12-hour cycle ride to raise money for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.

The event is part of the charity's Go Pink Campaign, which runs throughout Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October and sees amazing people up and down the country getting creative to organise events with a pink theme.

On Thursday, October 13, staff at Celtic Haven will be taking turns on a gym bike in a team effort which aims to raise a substantial sum to support the charity's vital research.

The staff members have set themselves the ambitious target of cycling the distance from Lydstep to Bristol - a total of around 100 miles. Supporters can also enjoy coffee and cake in The Spa, and enter a raffle to win gorgeous skin care prizes from Elemis and Thalgo.

Naomi Denning, who is helping to organise the event, said: "The 12-hour cycle is going to be tough, but we're all committed to raising money for this brilliant cause. While we're doing the hard work, we hope lots of people will come along to enjoy a coffee and try their luck in the raffle."

The staff have already got the pink theme all stitched up, as they will be wearing their pink uniforms throughout October.

First prize in the raffle is a gorgeous Elemis Alice Temperley set worth £79, with spectacular raffle prizes going to three more lucky winners. Raffle tickets cost just £1 a strip, and can be purchased from The Spa throughout October. The raffle will be drawn at the end of the month.
