As the excitement of the Euros builds, The Foundry in Aberdeen is gearing up for a unique and heartfelt challenge. From Thursday to Sunday, and eventually throughout the week as the final approaches, the dedicated staff of The Foundry will be cycling a collective 1,220 miles—the equivalent distance from Aberdeen to the Euros final stadium.

Ride for a cause
This isn’t just any ride; it’s a ride with a mission. All 18 members of The Foundry team are hopping on an exercise bike to cover this ambitious distance, with the ultimate goal of raising money for two incredible causes: Motor Neuron Disease Scotland and a local children’s home in Aberdeen.
A community effort
For the past three years, The Foundry has been a beacon of hope and generosity, raising over £5,000 for the children’s home. This year, the pub aims to contribute to Stonegate’s impressive goal of raising £1 million for Motor Neuron Disease Scotland. This is a cause that hits close to home for many, and the team’s dedication is a testament to their commitment to making a positive impact.
Football and fun
What better way to support a great cause than by combining it with the thrill of live football? The Foundry will be showing the Euros on 45 TV screens, providing the perfect backdrop for an evening of sport and camaraderie. Whether you’re a die-hard football fan or just looking for a way to give back to the community, The Foundry has something for everyone.
How you can help
Pop into The Foundry Bar, enjoy the football, and cheer on the staff as they cycle their way to their goal. Your presence and support mean the world, and donations are more than welcome. Bring some cash and contribute to these worthy causes while soaking in the vibrant atmosphere of The Foundry.
Together, we can make a difference
