Cencora Teams Raise £15,000 for Charity in Race the Sun Challenge!

Race the Sun Cheddar Gorge Challenge 2025 ☀️

Teams from Cencora Alliance Healthcare and Cencora Alloga have successfully raised and donated £15,000 for Action Medical Research following the Race the Sun Cheddar Gorge Challenge 2025 involving 30 team members from across the business. 

Participants pushed their limits in a day-long challenge involving:

    - 30 mile cycle (2,000 feet elevation) 🚴

    - 6 mile hike (1,200 feet elevation) 🚶

    - 1.2 mile canoe 🛶

All in the breathtaking surroundings of Cheddar Gorge in Somerset! On an extremely hot day (33.C) – really feeling the sun in the Race the Sun Challenge. All team members completed safely and were determined to reach the finish line to support vital medical research that saves children’s lives.

Action Medical Research is the UK’s leading charity dedicated to funding research to help sick and disabled babies, children and young people. For over 70 years, the charity has played a crucial role in driving medical progress, supporting research into rare and complex conditions that often receive little funding. The charity’s research has helped develop both the polio vaccine and ultrasound scanning in pregnancy, changing lives worldwide. 

Sam Unsworth, Head of Communications and RTS Challenger at Alliance Healthcare, said: “It was amazing to be part of a day filled with such strong team spirit and shared purpose. We’re so proud to be contributing to research that’s making a real difference for children and their families.” 

Lucy Holloway, Corporate Partnership and Event Management Executive, Action Medical Research said: “We are immensely grateful for the continued support of Alliance Healthcare UK. The funds that have been raised will go a long way in facilitating change for these children’s lives through important medical research.” 

The Race the Sun Cheddar Gorge Challenge 2025 showcased not only the physical endurance of the Alliance Healthcare and Alloga team members, but also the unwavering commitment to building a community united in supporting healthier futures through charitable fundraising and collective action.
