In June this year Naren, Nigel and Mungo will be joining 20 people on Kinetic's 2011 cycle event through stage 6 of the Tour de France - a 2 day, 200 mile cycle from Dinan to Lisieux including one of the Tour's biggest 4 mile climbs into the mountains - ouch!  One leg between 58 and 65 miles is a 1,000 ft climb, which even the pro riders get out of their seats for!  If you’re interested, the map and link are below:

Our chosen charity is Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research which is the only UK charity solely dedicated to research into blood cancers, including leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma. We have supported Leukaemia charities for several years now following the death of a personal friend of Nigel's to leukaemia at a very young age, and also last year our Colleague, Terry Dyer, was successfully treated for Lymphoma. 

 

Their life-saving research is focused on finding causes, improving diagnosis and treatments, and running groundbreaking clinical trials for all blood cancer patients. Blood cancers including leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma affect people of all ages from babies to grandparents. We need to be sure that we reach all those touched by leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma and give them the best possible chance of survival.

 

We know the charity and would be grateful for any donation you could help with, however small.  Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research receive no lottery support so charitable donations like this genuinely do keep them running, and keep them helping people suffering with all blood cancers.
