This is all in support of the Tennis Foundation who are teaming up with Greenhouse. The Tennis Foundation, Great Britain’s leading tennis charity, has been working in partnership with Greenhouse over the past two years and currently supports two tennis programmes in East London schools: St Paul’s Way Trust School, Tower Hamlets and Cumberland School, Newham.

All funds raised by the Cycle Challenge will go towards expanding the number of schools Greenhouse can support in London. They’ve seen first-hand the impact these programmes have on the young people at St Paul’s Way and Cumberland – not just on their tennis skills but their social, thinking, emotional and physical skills too – in some of London’s most disadvantaged communities.
