CYCLISTS FIGHTING CANCER enables children and young people living with cancer across the UK to regain their physical fitness and mental wellness by giving them new bikes, adapted trikes, tandems, other equipment and support. Physical activity is a key element in rehabilitation from treatments.

Story

Every year in the UK approximately 2,400 children and young people are diagnosed with cancer and we are passionate about helping all of these families along this difficult journey.

Every penny of your fundraising will go directly to helping kids with cancer by providing them with new bikes and specially adapted trikes which help them to regain their physical fitness, strength, mental wellness and reduce their social isolation after months of cancer treatment. Since the charity began in 2005 we have helped over 8,500 children in their rehabilitation, to get outside, get active and have some much needed fun! Children just like Emma;

9 year old Emma was diagnosed with metastatic Ewing Sarcoma in her right femur which is now severely damaged. She has reduced flexibility in her right knee and is prohibited from running and jumping - anything that would result in a strong impact on her legs, as there is a high danger of fracturing. Mum says,

Just wanted to send through these happy pics of Emma on her trike. As the ice melted, we could once again get her out on it, what a joy, proudly pedalling around the house for quite a while.. our physiotherapist mentioned she could see her leg muscles are not wasting as quickly/strengthening and she even puts her feet down a bit flatter. What a difference it has made already! Thank you so much!
