"We ride for those who died" Police Unity Tour '16
Fundraising for Care of Police Survivors
Story
"We ride for those who died!"
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
The UK Police Unity Tour (UKPUT) takes place between 29-30 July 2016. Starting at the National Police Memorial in London, we will make the journey across six counties to the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire.
in 2014 76 of us cycled around 200 miles for this in all weathers, heat waves and torrential storms. In 2015 that number doubled, with officers riding across the country and raising money to support our charity.
I have entered this event as a representative of the Metropolitan Police Service.
We ride in memory of fallen officers.
I ride in memory of PC 2239 Richard Gunn.
Richard's EOW was 14 March 2004. He lost his life responding to an emergency call, doing a job he loved. He was due to marry his fiancee just weeks later.
The thin blue line continues to get ever thinner as the loss of police colleagues occurs more frequently. With the murder of Greater Manchester officers, PC’s Fiona Bone and Nicola Hughes, in 2012 and then PC Andrew Duncan who was killed in a hit and run, 2014 - the world of policing becomes an increasingly dangerous place to be.
The National Police Memorial at the corner of The Mall and Horse Guards in London is the starting point for the UK Police Unity Tour. The memorial contains an inscribed roll of honour with the names of approximately 1600 officers killed whilst on duty.
A key aim of the Police Unity Tour is to raise awareness of police officer fatalities and the ultimate price police officers sometimes pay in the protection of communities up and down the country. This is achieved through visibility of the ride, sponsorship and donations
Care of Police Survivors (otherwise known as COPS) is a UK registered charity dedicated to helping the families of police officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty, rebuild their lives. It aims to ensure that survivors have all the help they need to cope with such a tragedy, and that they remain part of the police family.
COPS enables survivors to help survivors. Only another survivor can fully understand what new survivors endure, and that shared experience is the basis for the peer support programme.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
