On Thursday 31st July 2025 a team of cyclists and their support crew will set off on the UK Police Unity Tour 2025.

Those cycling will set off on two wheels with nothing but pedal power from Dorset to Staffordshire. Their support team will be on hand to make sure the team makes it to the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire on Sunday 3rd August 2025 no matter what; come rain or shine.

It is at the arboretum that we will converge with all of the riders from Police Forces across the country to represent Dorset Police at the COPS Service of Remembrance. We will stand proudly together not just in memory of our fallen friends and colleagues but also in support of their family and friends. We ride in memory of individual officers but we stand together in remembrance of them all.

The Police Unity Tour is a long-distance cycle ride undertaken by hundreds of police officers across the UK in aid of Care of Police Survivors (COPS). The primary purpose of the Police Unity Tour is to raise awareness of Law Enforcement Officers who have died in the line of duty.

The secondary purpose of the UK tour is to raise funds for Care of Police Survivors, a UK charity dedicated to helping the families of police officers and police staff who have lost their lives on duty.

The cyclists will join together and finish their journey at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire, where a Service of Remembrance is being held by COPS for their fallen friends and colleagues.
