Join #TeamStGiles for our London to Paris Bike Ride

Cross the channel in your saddle to support local people, and their families, living with a terminal illness. This promises to be a cycling experience you’ll never forget while supporting your local hospice.

About the ride

Cycling from London to Paris is one of the greatest cycling experiences in Europe. After passing through picturesque Kent countryside, you’ll cross the Channel and continue through the small villages and medieval market towns of Northern France. There’ll be long days in the saddle and some strenuous hill-climbs but the sight of the Eiffel Tower, our finishing point, will give you a real sense of achievement. The last day in Paris allows everyone to explore the sights and soak up the atmosphere of France’s capital city.

We’re here for you… because you’re here for us

“My father in law felt comfortable there and the staff were so attentive. I felt a cycle was a way I could give something back whilst doing something I enjoy.”

Phil Langham took part in his first Cycle St Giles event last September to thank staff for looking after his father-in-law before his death from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

“Cycling is a very sociable thing to do and knowing we were all riding for such a good cause gave us a real boost.

“I support St Giles Hospice because it’s such a lovely place. My father in law felt comfortable there and the staff were really good. They always did what they could to help and the nurses were brilliant, really attentive.”

Phil will be returning to ride at other cycling events for us this year and hopes you’ll join him. “I would definitely encourage people to take part in a cycling challenge for St Giles. It’s a great way to get some exercise and see the countryside and there’s a ride for people of all abilities – you can be as adventurous as you like!”

Join Phil by fundraising for St Giles and help us to support local people and their families living with a terminal illness.
