Story

The Tour 'O Booths '21 is our second event of its kind and will take place on May 24th to the 28th (World Blood Cancer Day). We will visit all Booths sites and stores and also 2 of the Cancer treatment centres funded by the Cure Leukaemia at The Christie, Manchester and Jimmys in Leeds. We aim to raise over £30,000 from this event

Our suppliers turned sponsors have been absolutely out-standing with 5 stage sponsors and 4 co-event sponsors. We will see around 50 people take part over the 5 days this year with a new introduction of a run on the first stage for the ‘non-cyclists’ to get involved. The participants are made up of Booths colleagues from all parts of the business, our suppliers and also some customers. 9 riders will take on the full route which is around 600 km over 5 days through some of the most beautiful (and challenging) scenery that The Lakes, Dales and Bowland has to offer.

All net funds raised from this event will be invested directly into the national Trials Acceleration Programme (TAP) network which Cure Leukaemia began funding from January 2020 allowing them to open and run clinical trials for pioneering treatments for the disease. Patients from an increased catchment area of over 20 million people will have access, as a result, to potentially life-saving treatments.
