In the run up to International Women's Day, we are calling for teams of five brave individuals to take up the challenge of cycling at least 500 miles in one week, raising much-needed funds to help North East women and their families transform their lives.

We have been able to pull together 2 teams of keen cyclists and spinning class 'professionals' who have decided to do something they love to help empower women in the North East and help them get back into employment.

Thank you for any support you can give, it will make a real difference to those in need.
