#Tickets2Wishes

Bacta’s seaside members run a scheme inviting their customers to donate unwanted redemption tickets to the charity Rays of Sunshine, which grants wishes to children with terminal or life-limiting illnesses. We would like to thank all those members of the public who in 2017 helped us to collect over 2 million tickets.

The Bacta Bikers

Formed in 1991 by Dave Orton, the bacta Bikers are an intrepid group of industry luminaries who combine their passion for motorbikes with a compassion for those who are less fortunate.

With age no barrier (Dave Orton stood down from the group he formed aged 74!) the bacta bikers have raised close to £200,000 for good causes including Macmillan Nurses, the John Radcliffe Hospital Children’s Cancer Research Centre, RNID and Rays of Sunshine.

A recent European tour covered over 3,500 miles, taking in Germany, Austria and the Netherlands, generating a remarkable £16,000 for Rays of Sunshine.
