Biking for Children in Care 2022

Welcome to the 21st anniversary ride of Biking for Children in Care and the North Yorkshire Tour. The team are cycling 200 miles from Durham to York.

Story

2023 Update:

Gill Timmis and her intrepid team of cyclists from Twickenham Yacht club, are back! We are cycling 200 miles around Kent from Canterbury to Faversham across the weekend 15-18 June. We're again cycling for Become, a wonderful charity - and hoping to help break the charity's £1M donations target.

As the cost of living sky rockets, Become are deeply concerned about the impact for care-experienced young people, many who are living independently at age 18, some as young as 16.

Your donation will help to fund Become's direct services, including their Care Advice helpline available to help young people with any issues they're facing, including financial struggle, concerns about their mental health, or how to navigate the care system. You'll also be helping Become campaign with young people for systemic change to the care system, until every young person receives the understanding, love, and support they deserve.

Thank you!
