Our charity spinathon is back! We are running five 45 minute classes back to back and inviting members to join us on the bikes to raise money for our member chosen charities Primrose Car Service and Bedford Blues Foundation.

We are hoping to raise as much money as we can for Bedford Blues Foundation and Primrose Car Service and every penny we raise goes to them! These two charities were chosen by members to receive our support this year, but for those that aren’t familiar with their work here’s some very brief information on each.

The Bedford Blues Foundation is the charitable arm of Bedford Blues Rugby Club. Working across Bedfordshire and neighbouring areas, their mission is to inspire our community through the values of rugby to promote positive and informed lifestyle choices. The Foundation promotes community participation in healthy recreation by providing facilities for playing sport and physical activity. It also provides opportunities for education, sport, recreation or other leisure time activities for disadvantaged or vulnerable people across the community.

The Primrose Car Service provides award winning transport to cancer patients in Bedfordshire travelling to Addenbrookes Hospital for their radiotherapy treatment. This unique service, established in 2006 and believed to be one-of-a-kind in the UK, operates five days every week with a team of 25 volunteer drivers. Co-ordinated by a volunteer manager, the service is made possible by the Bedford Hospital Charity and Friends, through generous donations received from the community.
