Prosperity 24/7 and 16 other teams who participated in Prosperity Day 2026 generated an amazing £20,470 for Dementia Jersey and Mind Jersey through pedal power in the 12th annual virtual cycling challenge.
The fundraising total will be split between the two charities and brings the total amount raised for local charities by Prosperity Day over 12 years to almost £225,000.
Cycling a total of 339km 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 virtual route. 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 with two important local charities – Dementia Jersey and Mind Jersey – benefiting 100% from the endeavours of our corporate community.
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 Aztec Group, who had travelled the furthest distance in their heats. Aztec were victorious in the final race and even though Mourant topped the fundraising, Aztec achieved first place overall and took the title from Mourant for the first time in five years.
- Overall winners – 1st place – Aztec Group, 2nd place – Mourant, 3rd place – JTC Group
- Race winners – 1st place – Aztec Group, 2nd place – Mourant, 3rd place – Barclays
- Top fundraisers – 1st place – Mourant, 2nd place – Aztec Group, 3rd place – JTC Group

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 the most, 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 positive difference. We could not have imagined the 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.”
