About Head For The Wild
1000km. 3 Countries. 6 Days. One Powerful Cause.
We’re Head for the Wild — a group of friends from Derbyshire who believe in pushing ourselves physically to make a difference mentally.
Every year, we take on a tough new challenge to raise awareness and funds for mental health support. This year, we’re going bigger than ever.
We’re cycling 1000km along the WW1 Western Front — from Switzerland, through France, to the Belgian coast — in just 6 days.
That’s over 100 miles a day, across three countries, on two wheels — and for a couple of us, it’ll be the first time back on a bike since we were kids.
Why are we doing this?
Because mental health matters. And because Rock2Recovery — the charity we’re supporting this year — is doing vital work to help those who’ve faced some of life’s toughest battles: members of the Armed Forces, veterans, and emergency service workers.
Rock2Recovery offers free, specialist coaching to help people manage trauma, stress, and emotional pain. Their work changes lives — but they rely on public support to keep going.
We started Head for the Wild to bring people together, to reconnect with nature, and most of all, to create a safe space for open, honest conversations around mental health. Through our past adventures, we’ve raised thousands and built a community we’re proud of.
Now we’re asking for your help.
Donate, share, and support us on this journey. Let’s ride for those who need it most.
Thank you,
The HFTW Team
Fundraising Information
This fundraising page benefits the following good cause:
Rock2Recovery
Rock 2 Recovery, was formed in 2015 by Jamie Sanderson and Jason Fox, after they both experienced their own battles with stress after transitioning from the Royal Marines.
Our mission is to save and change the lives of those in our Armed Forces, our Veteran Community, the Emergency Services and their families who are affected by stress. Our purpose is to inspire and coach towards a more positive future.
Sessions are free to our clients and so fundraising has a vital part to play for us.
Following our unique experiences, we recognise the need for rapid preventative interventions, specific coaching and assistance.
Our non-clinical approach is aimed at inspiring, coaching, motivating and supporting individuals to experience real and positive change in their lives by "rethinking your thinking". We encourage everyone to engage in their own recovery and find their "rock".
Join our wonderful community of inspirational people from all walks of life, who encourage each other to achieve personal goals, including Service people and Veterans who’ve been affected by stress themselves. We could not provide the support to those who need us without our supporters and fundraisers, some who have used the service and want to give back and others who have been inspired by stories they have heard about the work that we do.
All of us at R2R thank you for your efforts and for every single penny raised, we couldn't do it without you!
