Cancer Centre Information

Thank you to everyone involved in this summer’s annual @ribblevalleyride for the wonderful continued support with the popular sportive! ❤

Jointly organised by Accrington and Clitheroe Rotary Clubs, the 11th annual event raised a total of £4,000, of which they donated £2,000 to us to help support local cancer projects in the region. The remaining funds were split between the Rotary Foundation and Prostate Cancer Research.

🚵 The event, co-founded by Rotarian Bill Honeywell, of Clitheroe Rotary Club, and Jacquie Baldwin, of Accrington Rotary Club, attracted around 200 cyclists aged between 12 and 87 years who chose to take on the 25 mile, 50 mile, or 70 mile route through stunning Ribble Valley and Forest of Bowland countryside.

Clitheroe Rotarian and event organiser John Spencer said: “Whilst a lot of hard work is undertaken by a small group of Rotarians, and supported by our generous sponsors, the reward is seeing all the cyclists who support the event and who pass such brilliant comments upon completion. It’s great to know that all the effort enables Rotary to support charities that do so much good for those who find themselves in need of support.”

Thank you to everyone involved - over the years and including this year’s donation, the ride has contributed an amazing £68,000 towards our projects, making a difference for thousands of local cancer patients 🙏

(And if you’re a cyclist and you fancy taking part next year, entries are open! The format and route are changing for the 2027 Ribble Valley Ride, which takes place on Sunday, 6th June - you can find more on the event’s Facebook page or here on their website: https://www.ribblevalleyride.org/ 🥰) ...

Thanks so much to the lovely staff and customers of @boothscountry Longridge! ❤

The store colleagues have selected us as their chosen charity until summer 2027, which means that customers are given the option to donate 25p to us as they check out using the card machines in store. So far, since the start of July this year, they`ve already raised over £560!

Thank you to everyone who has opted to send us a little spare change while you do your shopping - all of your 25ps will add up to help fund life-changing projects for the benefit of local cancer patients 🤗 ...
