Last year, with the relentless effort from riders, we raised a staggering £53,500 for the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Children’s SACA Home from Home.

This year, the money raised by the SACA Charity Bike Ride 2017 will be used to fund ‘Helping Hands Projects’ in association with WellChild UK for children and young adults living with serious illness.

Every year a children’s charity is selected as the ride’s beneficiary. Over the last 32 years, the ride has raised in excess of £510,000 in aid of different children’s charity groups. Previous beneficiaries include Barnardo’s, NSPCC, Capital FM’s Help a London Child Appeal. Ealing Hospital’s Playground in the Sky Appeal. Contact a Family, dEBra, Down syndrome Research Foundation, Whizz Kidz , Richard House , SCOPE, Children with Leukemia, WellChild, Rainbow Trust and Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
