Thomas White Memorial TT (inc. Para National Series Rd. 7)

On Sunday 8th September Banbridge CC will once again promote the popular Thomas White Memorial Time Trial, incorporating the Cycling Ireland Paracycling National Series.  We also once again welcome Leckey, and their parent company Sunrise Medical, aboard as the event sponsor.

Leckey, a local Lisburn-based company is a globally recognised pioneer in the research, design and manufacture of solutions to deliver postural care for children with special needs.  Together with their parent company, Sunrise Medical, which has “Team Sunrise” – the largest and most renowned athlete ambassadors in the assistive mobility industry, there are already strong links to the para-cycling community. This sponsorship further demonstrates their commitment to improving people’s lives and contribution to the communities.

On announcement of the 2024 event, General Manager of Leckey, Firefly and Sunrise Medical UK Operations, Erwin McKee, says;

“We are very proud yet again to be supporting Banbridge Cycling Club for the third year running at their annual Thomas White Memorial time trial. At Leckey we aim to improve the quality of life of children and young people with additional needs, so supporting an event which promotes inclusion of paracycling is very important to everyone at Leckey.

Leckey as part of the Sunrise Medical group, has been supporting competitive paracycling, with specially adapted hand bikes on a global scale for several years now; so as we move into the future we will collectively continue to lead through innovation and clinical focus, developing equipment that empowers people with additional needs to live life to their fullest potential”.

Event Director, Martin Duffy, added;

“Banbridge Cycling Club feels very privileged that Leckey & Sunrise Medical have chosen to continue with their support of The Thomas White Memorial TT event.  As a round of the National Para Cycling Series the partnership couldn’t be more ideal.  The inclusivity of the event echoes the ethos and values Leckey & Sunrise Medical as a company champion day in day out."
