Prosperity 24/7 and the 17 other teams who participated in Prosperity Day 2025 generated an amazing £18,247 for Macmillan Cancer Support Jersey and Kezia’s Fund.
The fundraising was achieved through pedal power in the 11th annual Prosperity Day virtual cycling challenge which took place on Friday 27 June.
The total will be split between the two charities and brings the total amount raised for local charities by Prosperity Day over 11 years to almost £204,000.
Cycling a total of 326km between them, each team of three competed in a fast paced 30-minute race using Zwift 3D race technology and Wahoo Kickr turbo bike trainers to see who could achieve the furthest distance over the ‘croissant’ route – a scenic but challenging cycle through the virtual Norman French countryside. Their race day performance was coupled with each team undertaking all-important fundraising activities, to secure their space on the podium.
Race day performance and charity fundraising are the two essential factors needed to make it to a podium position. It isn’t just about speed, but more importantly about, money raised. This is fundamentally important to the charities who ultimately benefit 100% from the endeavours and the purpose of Prosperity Day which is to ensure our corporate community has a positive impact for local charities.
The final three teams who went ‘head-to-head-to-head’ on a virtual velodrome race to see who would take bragging rights on race performance, were Mourant, Barclays and Big Maggy’s, who had travelled the furthest distance in their heats. Mourant were victorious in the race and topped the fundraising, so achieved first place overall and defended their title for a fourth consecutive year.
- Overall winners – 1st place – Mourant, 2nd place JTC Group, 3rd place – Palmer
- Race winners – 1st place – Mourant, 2nd place – Big Maggy’s , 3rd place – Barclays
- Top fundraisers – 1st place – Mourant, 2nd place – HSBC, 3rd place – Palmer
Other participating teams were: Aztec Group, Bedell Cristin, Reto Finance, Islands Insurance, Ogier, PwC, KPMG, TMF Group as well as teams from the two charities and Prosperity 24.7.
Chris Clark, Chief Executive Officer of Prosperity 24/7 said: “Once again we are incredibly grateful to everyone involved in our annual community event for giving their time and energy to help us to raise an incredible amount to benefit two phenomenal charities. Many of our corporate teams come back year after year to help us make a difference to those who need it and it’s been great to see some newcomers this year adding a new dimension to the corporate rivalry.
“We started Prosperity Day because we wanted to do something that made a difference. We could not have imagined the positive impact we’ve had on so many people’s lives. It is simply incredible what the local business community has managed to achieve together, since we started the event in 2015.”
