The Duchenne Dash is Duchenne UK's annual signature VIP cycling event. Over the past 14 years, the Dash has grown into our biggest and most challenging fundraising event of the year and has raised more than £9 million for Duchenne muscular dystrophy research (DMD).

Since the first Dash in 2013, Duchenne UK has brought light to a once dark and lonely landscape. Every achievement — from building a clinical trial network, to new drug approvals, to vastly improving care, and to developing pioneering tech to help disability – has been fuelled by the Dash.

The Duchenne Dash will take place on 8-9 May 2026.

Your journey will start at the Herne Hill Velodrome, South East London, working your way down the country to Newhaven and boarding the overnight ferry to Dieppe. You'll get the chance to rest before getting straight back on the
