Helping Kids with Cancer Sportive

Cycling for a Cause: Supporting Kids with Cancer 

Introduction:

Welcome to UK Sportives, where our focus is on charity, community, and compassion. Beyond the pursuit of Strava segments, we're on a mission to inspire newcomers to the cycling scene. If you have friends testing the cycling waters make sure you encourage them to join our events. Our diverse routes are designed to challenge seasoned cyclists while ensuring newcomers feel welcomed and not overwhelmed.

At UK Sportives, we're committed to making a genuine impact on lives and fostering positive changes within our communities and the charities we support.

Why Cyclists Fighting Cancer for Our Helping Kids with Cancer Sportive?

Our choice of Cyclists Fighting Cancer as the beneficiary for our Helping Kids with Cancer Sportive was guided by a thorough exploration of cycling-based charities in the Northwest region. Cyclists Fighting Cancer stood out, focusing on assisting young people and their siblings. They contribute by donating bikes, adapted cycles, and cycling gear to aid those undergoing treatment, promoting physical recovery, enhancing mental well-being, and alleviating social isolation.

Cyclists Fighting Cancer Bike Shops:

Moreover, Cyclists Fighting Cancer operates several bike shops, engaging in the recycling and sale of donated bikes, accessories, and components. Beyond that, they provide professional servicing and maintenance, with all shop profits directed toward acquiring more bikes and trikes for children affected by cancer and beyond. You can explore their bike shops here

Meeting the Team:

Our initial contact with Rachel, who was had so much enthusiasm for the charity, was a decisive factor. Engaging with someone so dedicated was a no-brainer. Subsequent meetings with Richard further solidified our choice, as his passion and commitment to the charity shone through.

Our Next Event:

As we gear up for our sportive on May 12th, you can find all the details on our website here.

Join us as we support Cyclists Fighting Cancer in making a meaningful impact on the lives of those in need.
