This charity was set up by friends after one of our good friends was diagnosed with breast cancer. She survived thanks to the amazing research at The Royal Marsden. I know many other women who have been impacted too. And you never know who is next.
Having recently left my job, now felt like a good time to make my own small contribution to their efforts. I’m quite sporty, but cycling isn‘t really my thing and hills definitely aren’t. 100km is a very long way. But I’m relishing the challenge! I have never raised money by running the odd 10k etc - this feels enough of a challenge to ask! Thank you if you donate!
PS photo is of me (left) and my sister on our first training ride (40k) with 5 weeks to go.
This fundraising page benefits the following good cause:
Imagine a future beyond cancer. At The Royal Marsden we’re dedicated to making this happen. We’re a world-leading innovation centre who pioneer new treatments that save lives. We use our research every day to provide the very best in diagnosis, treatment and care for our patients. The revolutionary way we treat people in our hospitals has far-reaching impact, nationally and internationally. This kind of pioneering work costs money. Support The Royal Marsden and you’re investing in a future beyond cancer for you and for everyone you know.
The Le Cure Classic on 19th September 2026 is our inaugural one day event. The Classic will set off from Belair Park in Southwark and finish with a lap of the track at the Herne Hill Velodrome in true Paris-Roubaix style!
Join us for what promises to be a great day out on the bike and a fun evening with refreshments and racing for Curistas to enjoy at the Velodrome.
As ever, all funds raised by Le Cure will go directly to Le Cure's cancer research at the Royal Marsden Hospital.
