T
ori Bush, daughter of Richard
the chairman of funeral
supplies company Tributes,
has returned to the firm’s
customer care team following
a cycle trip which lasted two years.
Last September, Tori returned from
cycling solo around the world, clocking up
25,000 miles on her journey. She visited
33 countries including America, Japan, The
Far East, China, and eventually back home
through Europe, and Scandinavia. Tori
mostly slept in her tent which she pitched
in jungles, deserts, beaches, volcanos,

temples and on occasions staying in
fire stations and police prison cells. She
documented the experience on her travel
blog www.littlebluebike.co.uk.
Tori did not originally set out to raise
money for charity and saw the trip as a
personal challenge, but her father Richard
decided to set up a fund for her to donate
to a charity of her choice on her return. So
far this has raised over £3,000 which Tori
has given to Cyclists Fighting Cancer which
supports children recovering from cancer
(www.cyclistsfc.org.uk).
Tori’s role currently takes her out on
the road visiting prospects and existing
customers and she has worked for the
family business on and off since her school
days.
