Breathe for Life Herefordshire

The Breathe Life End to End Team Cycle Challenge is a 15 day, 1400 - mile endurance epic that starts at sunrise in Cornwall on September 22nd and ends in Scotland at sunset two weeks later.

Joining the team, whether that is for 20, 50, or 100 miles or for the entire journey means becoming part of a community of philanthropic riders and volunteers committed to breathing life into supporting research and action to prevent and treat rare lung cancers - increasing quality of life and survivorship of suffers, providing care and wellbeing support for affected families, and supporting the campaign for clean air.

The benefit to you is threefold: to improve your own health, to improve the lives of others and to improve the quality of the air we breathe via fundraising.

This a fairly easy ride from Brecon to the English market town of Market Drayton. We are appealing to members of cycle clubs, families and groups of friends and supporters who are willing and able to join in for relay sections of this ride, to help us raise funds to meet our target of £10,000 for this stretch. If we could recruit 100 team members from the counties of Brecknockshire, Herefordshire, and Shropshire, each raising £100, we would easily hit this target and help hit the whole UK target of £250,000.

As a team member, you are welcome to join us for all or part of this route "passing the baton" as you leave. The route ends in Market Drayton where the End to End team will rest until sunrise. The exact routes are not cast in concrete and we are open to ideas and suggestions, particularly if you are a member of a cycle club team and have a preferred route through your county.

There will be water stops/support vehicles at approximately 25 miles and 50 miles and at 80 miles. You, the participants, pay all the costs of staging the event so that 100% of donations go straight to the charities we support. The costs of registration are £25 (includes t-shirt) or £50 (includes cycle jersey) plus a minimum sponsorship pledge of £100. Registration includes vehicle support (including transport for luggage if you are staying over in Market Drayton) and route information.

Register your interest here and we will add you to the team. The more communities we reach , the more awareness and funds we raise.
