For the past two years, Dunstan Thomas has supported the charitable efforts of the MoneySpinners. The MoneySpinners is a group of like minded executives from the financial services industry that on an annual basis get together and raise money for worthy causes. Money Spinners was set up two years ago by the former managing director of Allied Dunbar and J Rothschild Assurance, ex Openwork and more recently, chief executive of Caerus Wealth Management, Keith Carby. The fundraising focuses on raising funds for identified charities through support from organisations linked to the financial services industry. It runs at least one major sponsored bike ride each year.

This year MoneySpinners is raising money for the Alzheimer’s Society by riding bicycles 600 miles from Paris to Bordeaux. Last year over £50,000 was raised for the MacMillan Nurses in a ride between the mostly easterly point in England, Lowestoft, and the most westerly point in Ireland, Dingle Point.

Not only has the company supported MoneySpinners but our very own Chris Read has actively participated in last year’s ride and will again participate in this year’s ride that starts on the 3rd September. The route takes the riders from Paris through Chartres southwards over the Loire, onwards to some punishing hills in the Dordogne and onwards onto Bordeaux.
