Held in the heart of Paternoster Square, Tour de Pat saw teams from across the estate take turns on static bikes, working together to cover the distance from the square to Paris.
What Is Tour de Pat?
Tour de Pat is an annual charity challenge next to St Paul’s Cathedral in the City of London. The combined target is roughly 196 miles, the equivalent of the journey from Paternoster Square to Paris.
The event brings the Paternoster Square community together through teamwork, friendly competition and fundraising. Every rider plays a part in reaching the collective goal.
For Team DOC, it was also a chance to support our client and get involved with the wider estate community.
Meet Team DOC
Four colleagues represented DOC Cleaning at the event:
- Arthur Andrews, Business Development Manager
- Brummell Gonzalez, Account Director
- Tom Harper, Operations Manager
- Ricardo Coelho, Site Supervisor
Each of them took a shift cycling, adding their miles to the estate’s combined total.
Supporting Future Dreams
Tour de Pat 2026 raised money for Future Dreams Breast Cancer Charity. Mother and daughter Sylvie Henry and Danielle Leslie founded the charity in 2008 with one mission: to make sure nobody faces breast cancer alone.
Today, Future Dreams provides practical and emotional support for people affected by breast cancer. It also promotes breast health awareness and funds vital research into secondary breast cancer. The charity runs Future Dreams House in King’s Cross, the UK’s only dedicated breast cancer support centre.
A big thank you to Arthur, Brummell, Tom and Ricardo for representing Team DOC. We would also like to thank our client, the event organisers and everyone across Paternoster Square who cycled, supported and donated throughout the challenge.
