Raising money for

Cancer Research UK

Charity Registration No. 1089464

Cancer Research UK is the world's leading independent organisation dedicated to cancer research. We support research into all aspects of cancer through the work of more than 4,250 scientists, doctors and nurses. Over the past 10 years alone, thousands of lives have been saved through earlier detection and improved treatments. But, much work remains to be done if we are to achieve our aim of beating cancer.

My story

Simon came up with the bold notion that we should cycle from London to Paris to raise money for Cancer Research UK. He then came up with the idea that it would be even more of a challenge to do the 250 miles in 24 hours!

391km in 22hours finishing in Paris at 11pm. Simon has written a great post ("A tale of two cities") all about our adventure on our team website. You can also view all the photos from our adventure. Thanks for all your support.

But cycling is only one aspect of the challenge, we still need your help to get us to the the target of raising £5000 for Cancer Research UK. Every £1 you donate will then be doubled by Thames Water through our matched funding scheme.

Please dig deep and sponsor us online. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cancer Research UK will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support. visit our team website www.london24paris.com for news, our training diary and team photos.
