Cycle Land?s End to John O?Groats

8 – 19 May 2007 & 6 – 17 May 2008

This 12 day cycling challenge, covering the furthest possible distance in the British Isles, takes you from the south westerly tip of England up to the North coast of Scotland, through a stunning range of British countryside.  It’s a tough challenge but a great way to see the country and one of the most rewarding things you will ever do, all while raising vital funds to fight childhood liver disease. 

Contact CLDF today for more information and a reservation form, or call 0121 212 6022.  Alternatively you can book online via the event organiser’s website.  Don’t forget to select Children's Liver Disease Foundation as your charity.
