“Sponsoring the ADS charity cycle was one of the highlights of our calendar last year. The event brought together our leadership team, customers and industry peers in a way that few other events can, whilst raising vital funds for some truly worthy causes. Our CEO and EVP both took part in legs of the ride and loved every minute. TT Electronics is proud to have been part of something so meaningful and we would encourage any organisation looking to strengthen industry relationships whilst making a real difference to get involved. We cannot wait to support the ADS cycle again this year.”

Our Headline Partner package has been designed to elevate the level of donation contribution for our charity beneficiaries. In recognition of this level of support, we have limited it to three Headline Partner opportunities, with the following benefits:
With three stages available, choose from Belfast, Dublin or Builth Wells.
Over the next few months, we will be doing promotional activity to support the cycle. With more information to come, we will be giving opportunities to individuals who may not be able to join us on the cycle to engage and participate in alternative ways.
If you would like to get involved please contact charity@adsgroup.org.uk.
Our aims are to expand this unique workforce capability and national advantage by delivering sector investment and knowledge to the frontiers of advanced manufacturing.
