Clerkenwheels is the idea of interior designer, educator and podcaster, Jonathan Forster and creative director, Tom Bourne.

The event will see the pair cycle their way from University of Plymouth all the way to Clerkenwell, arriving for the start of interior design’s biggest UK festival.

Covering some 260 miles over five days, the pair will stop off to podcast with designers, manufacturers and industry personalities discussing the importance of diversity and inclusivity for the future of interior design.

The ride will raise funds for the United in Design (UiD) Education & Outreach programme, a grassroots initiative to encourage young people from underrepresented communities and diverse socio-economic backgrounds into the industry through knowledge, experience and career planning.
