50 cyclists will tackle the rocky terrains of Cambodia, cycling across Siem Reap to Sihanoukville to raise funds.
For the third year running, Edrington employees from across the globe will gather to cycle for charity. The 2017 fundraiser will see 50 staff members, including global CEO Ian Curle pedalling from Siem Reap in the north of Cambodia to Sihanoukville in the south—a trail spanning more than 600km, across difficult and unfamiliar terrains.

This year, the funds raised will go towards M’Lop Tapang, a non-profit organisation in Sihanoukville that provides a safe haven for underprivileged children and children at risk of abuse. The organisation offers access to education, reintegration with families, life-skills training and other holistic pursuits for these adolescents.
“We feel incredibly privileged to be able to support such an inspirational charity in Cambodia and with Edrington ‘double matching’ all the money that is raised, we hope to make a meaningful impact to the lives of the children in M’lop Tapang’s care,” says Martin Reimann, managing director for Asia Pacific & India.
