Biking For Breakfasts 2

St James’ Park (Exeter) via St George’s Park

Following the success of last year’s inaugural Biking for Breakfasts ride to Ipswich, the Huddersfield Town Foundation will be venturing to St James’ Park, Exeter for their second fundraising bike ride for breakfast clubs!

The event will take place from 22 to 26 April 2025, with the ride beginning at our home at the John Smith’s Stadium and finishing at Exeter City’s St James’ Park, where Town will take on the Grecians in their last away game of the 2024/25 season. As well as the challenge of the ride itself, cyclists will have the opportunity to stay overnight at St George’s Park, the home of the England football team!

Supporters looking to sign up and join the ride will be helping to raise much-needed funds for our Early Kick Off Breakfast Clubs programme, which provide children who need it most the best possible start to their day of learning at school.

Your direct support is vital, as the Breakfast Clubs cost around £100,000 per year to run. By supporting this cause, you can feel assured knowing that your hard work and generosity will support someone in need. To date the Foundation have served over two-and-a-half million breakfasts and are now on a mission to double this and reach five million!
