Fundraising
As if a cancer diagnosis isn’t tough enough, the financial impact of cancer can be devastating. Lots of travel for treatment, hotels, extra heating costs at home. It soon adds up, causing further anxiety and worry which is why your support is so important. To make any donations visit our JustGiving page below.
About this Event
This three-day event will be attended by 30 cyclists comprising of senior Arrow staff and partner accounts. From Newmarket and the Hook of Holland the route passes through cycle paths, islands and sea-barrages of the low-lying Dutch Zeeland. The city and historic harbour of Vlissingen is home to the ferry that takes you across to the final leg of the adventure, winding through West Flanders and into the canals and historic cobbled streets of Bruges in Belgium.

Why CLIC Sargent?
CLIC Sargent fights tirelessly to stop cancer destroying young lives and this is your chance to help. As the UK’s leading cancer charity for children and young people, CLIC Sargent is almost entirely reliant on voluntary donations. Helping each child and young person when they need it the most, they provide families with vital financial, emotional and practical support on a daily. They provide grants and free accommodation close to hospitals to help with spiralling costs for suffering families. Their vision is that everyone under 25 with cancer, and their families, will get the support and help they need during their cancer treatment and beyond. They want them to thrive not just survive. This includes bereaved families living with emotional pain.
