It's time to get on your bike and take on this amazing challenge to help the most vulnerable people from the cycle of poverty. Wherever you are and whatever the distance, join us in our cycling challenge this August, September and October!
You might choose one of our suggested distances below, or come up with your own. Cycle inside on a static bike, or take your challenge into the great outdoors! Easily set up your Just Giving page and get fundraising. Raise over £400 and we’ll send you a limited edition Pedal 4 Poverty jersey.
