On Saturday 1st July 2023 the Holiday Inn Huntingdon-Racecourse will be holding our first ever Holiday Inn Huntingdon-Racecourse Charity Cycle to raise money for the amazing Aching Arms charity.

It is estimated that in the UK up to 1 in 4 pregnancies end in loss during pregnancy or birth. Aching Arms does so much to comfort bereaved parents throughout the UK and we want to help them continue to bring comfort to many more families during one of the most heartbreaking experiences they will ever face.

So what are you waiting for… get your Lycra on and sign up HERE. You can opt for the more modest 44 mile 'half-board' ride through the Cambridgeshire countryside or why not challenge yourself to the 'full-board' 62 miler! And when you're done our team will welcome you back to Event HQ at the Holiday Inn Huntingdon-Racecourse with a complimentary can of Nene Valley Brewery's Release the Chimps and a tasty burger from our sizzling BBQ to go with it!

We will donate a percentage of your entry fee directly to Aching Arms but we want you to help us do more. Please JOIN OUR TEAM on JustGiving and get your family, friends and colleagues to donate all they can. Everything you raise via our team will go towards our target and make a huge difference to so many grieving families.

And if cycling isn't your thing we would still appreciate any support and donations you can give.

Thank you for taking a moment to read our story.

A little bit more about Aching Arms...

In the UK, around 3,000 babies are stillborn each year and thousands more parents experience early and late miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, termination for medical reasons, neonatal death and loss through separation from their baby.

Aching Arms is a charity that gives its comfort bears to hospitals and hospices, for midwives and nurses to offer to bereaved parents in their care. They also offer a support service to parents after their loss, whether it was during pregnancy, at birth or soon after.

Last year Aching Arms donated over 5,000 bears to bereaved families.
