Thanks for taking the time to visit the Cycle GB 2016 JustGiving page.

Cycle GB 2016 is a 600 mile charity bike ride from SAMH’s home in Glasgow to Benenden Hospital in Kent.  The event seeks to increase awareness of mental health and raise £50,000 which will be split equally between Benenden Charitable Trust and SAMH.

A team of 22 intrepid cyclists from Benenden, Keegan & Pennykid and RSA will take on the significant physical challenge of the ride across two stages:

Stage 1

Glasgow to Benenden’s Head office in York (21st-23rd September)

Stage 2

York to Benenden Hospital in Kent (26th - 29th September)

All of our riders are very grateful for your sponsorship donation, which will be used to further the work of both charities.
