Tuk-Tuk Finish Line

Millbrook Dairy, the fast-growing cheese and butter business founded in 2019 by David Evans and Kevin Beer, has raised over £25k for BBC Children in Need through its epic Tuk-Tuk Challenge.

Founders David Evans and Kevin Beer travelled from their headquarters in Bideford, Devon to the Orkney Islands in Scotland, in a Tuk-Tuk sporting a giant wedge of cheese on the roof - a journey that included 29 stops and more than 1,600 miles.

The pair visited many of the major UK cheese producers in England, Wales and Scotland along the way, tasting and grading their cheese, starting with Parkham Farms in Devon, and finishing at Kirkwall Creamery on the Orkney Islands, nine days later.

Kevin Beer said: “It’s our fifth birthday this year and we wanted to do something completely different where we could give back to society – hence our crazy Tuk-Tuk idea! As well as raising a huge amount of money for BBC Children In Need, we have sampled some amazing cheeses along the way from many of the very best of UK producers.”
