In January 2023, PC Bruce Lister passed away. COPS reached out and offered support in dealing with the sudden loss. After watching the Police Unity Tour in July 2023, myself and Janine were overwhelmed by the support and love from everyone who took part, whether they knew a member of the police force who had passed away, were a member themselves of the police force, or just wanted to help out. We knew we wanted to give back to COPs for their support since losing Dad, and so this year we are excited to be taking on the ride.

COPS receives no government funding and relies completely on donations. Anything you can donate could help make a huge difference to the families of fallen police officers.

The Police Unity Tour is a long-distance cycle ride undertaken by hundreds of police officers across the UK in aid of Care of Police Survivors (COPS).

The primary purpose of the Police Unity Tour is to raise awareness of Law Enforcement Officers who have died in the line of duty.

The secondary purpose of the UK tour is to raise funds for Care of Police Survivors, a UK charity dedicated to helping the families of police officers and police staff who have lost their lives on duty.

The cyclists will join together and finish their journey at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire, where a Service of Remembrance is being held by COPS for their fallen friends and colleagues. See the video below to hear what the Police Unity Tour means for the charity's beneficiaries (survivors).
