An intrepid LCO cycling team are taking to the streets and hills of Greater Manchester on their bikes to raise money for the LCO.

On Sunday 1st May, Helen Ibbott, Ben Aspinall, Sarah Broad, Laura Foster and Dr Santosh Gholkar – supported by their friends and family – will don their Lycra to ride the Classic Manc section of the Tour de Manc. That’s a gruelling 100-mile ride with 7000 ft of climbing that will take them through nine boroughs of Greater Manchester.

The team are riding to raise funds for the LCO via the MFT Charitable Fund. Did you know that you can sign up for charitable events through the MFT Charity and specify that it goes to the LCO part of the charity for supporting community-based services and projects? That means you can raise funds directly for projects close to your heart.
