Wales Coast to Coast Challenge
Organised by Bowel Research UKThis Bums on Bikes cycle challenge will see riders completing the iconic Wales Coast to Coast route from north to south, raising vital funds towards bowel research.
Story
In September 2022, a group of ACPGBI members including colorectal surgeons, nurses and health professionals will cycle the length of Wales, taking on some of the toughest hills in the country. The Bums on Bikes' team aims to raise over £75,000 for Bowel Research UK and fund vital research into bowel cancer and other bowel diseases.
Over a million people suffer from bowel disease in the UK every year and bowel cancer tragically takes the lives of over 16,000 people annually. It remains the second most deadly cancer in the UK.
This cannot be allowed to continue. That's why Bowel Research UK is dedicated to finding effective treatments for bowel cancer and other bowel diseases, to save lives and to help people suffering with bowel conditions live a better quality of life.
Together, we can make a difference
