Ride for Helen 2024

28/03/2024 About 1 minute Share article:
The Helen Rollason Ride for Helen Essex event is back for an amazing ELEVENTH YEAR!

Ride for Helen 2024 will take place on Sunday 12th May 2024.

This year there will be a choice of six distances to chose from - and they will all enable you to take in the beautiful sights, smells and sounds of the Essex countryside.

Each registration supports those living with cancer within your local area.

The Helen Rollason charity is currently supporting over 1200 clients, with 1 in 2 of us facing a cancer diagnosis in our lifetime, sadly that number is ever increasing. We will not be able to be there for everyone who needs us without the community supporting us each step of the way.

The six cycling routes suit all capabilities, including; 6 miles, 15 miles, 30 miles, 50 miles, 65 miles and of course the new 100 miles! All routes are circular starting and finishing within the stunning setting of The Crix in Hatfield Peverel, Essex.

If you would like to take part in Ride for Helen 2024 you can sign up here.
