A team of butchers is cycling from London's Smithfield Market to Rungis Market, Paris - more than 186 miles - for charity on June 5. The meat sector has pledged generous donations, with contributions from firms such as Tulip and Aldi. The money will go to four charities including the Butchers' and Drovers' Charitable Institution, Breast Cancer Research, the Worshipful Company of Butchers' Charities and the National Farmers' Union's Africa 100 appeal.
