The Charity takes approximately 200 sick people to Lourdes each year for one week. To enable the charity to do this it also has to take about 500 helpers and family. Helpers all give their time voluntarily and also pay for their own trip.

Story

<p>For the last few years the three of us have been volunteering on the A&amp;B Lourdes Pilgrimage, assisting sick, elderly, and disabled pilgrims. This year we wanted to do something extra to raise money for this charity. Rob and Luke decided that instead of travelling on the train, they would cycle the 850km in a very ambitious 5 days. After some more serious thought on the matter, and some wise words of wisdom from other cyclists, they decided that 7 days would be more sensible. They also learned that a fellow A&amp;B pilgrim, John was planning the same trip, and so the A&amp;B Lourdes Cycle Club "To Lourdes in Lycra 2012" team was formed!&nbsp;</p> <p>In the coming weeks and months, our training and progress will be added to this site and&nbsp;<a title="Official Event Website" href="http://www.wix.com/lukedequay/cyclelourdes#!home|mainPage">#mce_temp_url#</a></p> <p>Please be generous and donate to this fantastic cause! We have all witnessed the huge difference this week long trip to Lourdes can make.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
