Take on a cycling challenge and fight meningitis

Dear Editor,

We’d like to invite keen cyclists among your readers to saddle up for next year’s RideLondon-Surrey 100 challenge and help the UK’s largest meningitis charity beat the deadly disease.

Meningitis Now has guaranteed places in the iconic event and we would love to have you on the team. It takes place on 16 August 2020, so you’ve plenty of time to get ready. Registration is just £9.99 with a fundraising pledge of £450. Be quick though, we only have 33 places available.

Our cyclists receive a personalised technical cycling jersey and training plans. We also provide fundraising support and a dedicated member of staff to help you every step of the way and make sure you don’t  fall by the wayside.

There’s also our supporters lining the route to cheer you on your way and our famous post-race party to celebrate your success

So, why wait until next February to find out if you have a place in the public ballot when you can sign up for one of our charity spots right away?

The important part of course is that by cycling for us you’ll be helping to fight meningitis and moving  us ever closer to our vision of a future where no one in the UK dies from the disease and everyone affected gets the support they need.

Sadly, meningitis and septicaemia continue to affect thousands of people in the UK and kill more under-5s than any other infectious disease. Help us fight back on all fronts by funding research to eradicate the disease, raising awareness and supporting those affected.

Yours faithfully
