We’re proud to sponsor Riley as he competes in the Surrey Schoolboys Trials Championships 🏍️💚

Over the past six months he’s competed in two championships and achieved 🥇 1st place and 🥉 3rd place.

Trials riding is all about focus, balance and control — navigating challenging outdoor obstacles with skill and determination.

It’s been fantastic to see his hard work pay off (and to know he’s enjoying every minute!).

Well done Riley — we’re proud to be part of your journey 👏

Gary Gamp is joined by Ben Ramsdale and Martin Cross, the duo driving Connect’s digital transformation, for a candid take on the realities of change.
