On September the 14th a group of cyclists from across LSEG will set out on the Raid Pyrenees in aid of Blood Cancer UK. A 100 hour ride from Hendaye on the Atlantic Coast to Cerbere on the Med. The only thing in our way... 750km and 15,000m of climbing across the Pyrenees. This is by far the most ambitious ride I have attempted and honestly not sure how it will go.

I am raising funds in support of Blood Cancer UK. This is a very personal charity for one of the participants of this year's ride as a member of their family has recently been diagnosed and is undergoing treatment.

Please feel free to support any member of the team through individual donations. The trip is self funded so all donations will go directly to the charity and will be fundmatched up to £2,000 per person by the LSEG Foundation.

A little about Blood Cancer UK...

We're a community dedicated to beating blood cancer. We do this by funding research and supporting those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. Right now, our community is funding 360 researchers and staff across the UK who are searching for the next breakthrough. The day we will beat blood cancer is now in sight and the researchers are determined to finish the job.
