Set up by a team of cycling enthusiasts, all of whom have lost a family member or a friend to cancer, Bike 4 Cancer is primarily a provider of days out and short-breaks for British families affected by cancer.
We also make grants to UK based care institutions and support research into the positive effects of exercise (e.g. cycling) and how it can help with cancer prevention and recovery.
On the 12 July 2017 Josh will set off on his epic Ark to Arc challenge leaving from the Ark Cancer Centre in Basingstoke and cycling to Porstmouth before getting the overnight ferry to Caen in aid of Bike 4 Cancer and the Ark Cancer Centre Charity.
Josh will then spend a further 3 days in the saddle cycling from Caen to Alencon and then onto Evreux finally finishing in Paris!
Josh Lewis is an associate at RSM in Basingstoke..
"I had previously been made aware of the fantastic goal of the Ark Cancer Centre Charity, to build a unique cancer treatment centre in North Hampshire, and thought at the time that it would be great if I could raise awareness and support for this worthwhile cause.
Well, here it is!
Via my own self-will (with no persuasion by a fellow colleague whatsoever) I have decided to take part in the ‘Ark to Arc’ that is a 262-mile bike ride from Basingstoke to Paris from 12th-16th July 2017.
It is fair to say that I am no stranger to the occasional bike ride but I can assure you that I have never uttered these words: “I’ve just finished cycling 60 plus miles per day for four consecutive days and not once did I feel like my legs were going to explode”.
Your donations are greatly needed to bring the goals of the Ark Cancer Centre Charity to fruition as well as to support the ongoing care that Bike 4 Cancer brings to families affected by cancer."
