The Police Unity Tour originally started in 1997 with 18 cyclists making the journey from New Jersey to Washington DC.
It has grown significantly with 1700 riders taking part in 2013 raising 1.72 million dollars for the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. In 2013; Inspired by the massive fundraising efforts by the Police Unity Tour in the United States, two officers of the Metropolitan Police Rob Atkin MBE & Gary Byfield organised the UK's first Police Unity Tour in aid of Care of Police Survivors, a U.K charity dedicated to helping the families of police officers who have lost their lives on duty, this has continued each year.

2018 ride is scheduled 27-29 July, route to be decided. in the past 2 years the force has raised over £4000 which we are keen to surpass in 2018.
