Story
The Bone Cancer Research Trust is dedicated to saving lives & improving outcomes for people affected by primary bone cancer. Despite being small, they fund more research projects exploring primary bone cancer than any other organisation. Other large UK cancer research charities do not prioritise bone cancer patients, in 2019 just 0.028% of their research spend went to bone cancer – not even close to 1%!
The background to wishing to undertake a charity ride initially was to raise funds to help Bone Cancer Research and this was borne from conversations with one of our members last year, Mike Bingham.
Some of you will be aware of Mike, he is a wonderful man who will help anyone at any turn. Very sadly Mike’s granddaughter, Lulu lived with Bone Cancer for a period of time and devastatingly lost her battle in early January aged 19. We had wished to undertake this challenge whilst Lulu was with us, however, her illness was too advanced .
