Ride for a Reason
Our cycling programme encourages supporters to cycle for charity across the UK and beyond. We've made sure that there's a bike event for all abilities, from beginners to advanced road cyclists, with routes ranging in distance and difficulty.
The London to Paris bike event we run every year is the largest of its kind, lasting four days and involving hundreds of cyclists, bonded by a desire to raise money for our work as a charity.
All our cycling events are fully supported and we'll help at every stage of the process.
