The Lourdes Children and Families Trust has 20 years experience of supporting families to enjoy pilgrimage holidays to the Catholic Marian Shrine of Lourdes, South West France.

We prioritise the support of families with additional needs and enable them to travel as part of a pilgrimage community of families to ensure that we create memories and friendships that last a lifetime.

On 24th July, 27 cyclists will begin a 7 day ride from the north coast of France, cycling 830km to Lourdes.

All cyclists are self-funding, have donated their own time and money to the cause and most will also act as volunteers during the pilgrimage week on arrival.
