Cure Leukaemia's London 2 Paris returns in 2023 for another fantastic 4-days of cycling, and this year is set to be our biggest year EVER and is an incredible experience!

Story

I'm cycling from London to Paris in over 4 days in June 2023 to raise money for Cure Leukaemia.  

I'm cycling in support of friends currently going through the disease and in memory of family members lost to it.  I'm riding as part of Team Portcullis - a group of friends from around Wallingford, Oxfordshire most of whom first met rowing together over a decade ago...and who like a challenge!  

It's a good number of years since I've done any regular training and clocking up the training miles so that I can get to Paris in June is proving tough.  I'd be really, really grateful for your support to get me through the hard miles and raise what I can for Cure Leukaemia.   

Cure Leukaemia helps blood cancer patients to access pioneering drug and transplant treatments by funding a network of specialist research nurses across the UK. Without these nurses, to ensure patients are monitored and cared for, clinical trials of these new treatments would not run and patients, that have exhausted standard treatment options, would miss out on potentially lifesaving therapies. Every penny raised for Cure Leukaemia helps save lives and also hastens global progress towards the eradication of all forms of blood cancer.

You can read more our story on the Team Portcullis page.  

Thanks so much for your support!
