Story

Action Medical Research are the leading UK charity funding vital research to help defeat the diseases that devastate the lives of sick and disabled babies, children and young people. At Action Medical Research we are determined to stop the suffering of babies and children caused by disease and disability. By supporting us, you are helping to find ways to reduce premature birth, to support children facing a lifetime of challenges caused by disabilities, and to develop cutting-edge therapies for rare and incurable diseases.

Teams of four are taking part in this extremely tough dawn to dusk event in the Lakes where they will cycle 40 miles bike ride around the imposing Skiddaw mountain , canoe 2-mile course on Derwent Water and finally summit Skiddaw on an 11 mile round trip to an altitude of 931m to raise money for this incredible cause.

With your help, we're determined to make a real difference to children's lives.
