Manchester to Blackpool bike ride - St Catherine's Hospice

Manchester to Blackpool bike ride

The fantastic Manchester to Blackpool bike ride is a very popular event with cyclists of all abilities. The route covers 60 miles from Salford Quays, with lots of refreshment stops along the scenic country lanes of Lancashire, and finishes on the South Promenade in Blackpool.

This is an external fundraiser hosted by Bike Events and the Christie charity, and riders are welcome to sign up and raise funds for St Catherine’s too through sponsorship efforts.

Our community engagement team can support you along the way with sponsorship forms, helping to set up a JustGiving page or Facebook Fundraiser if required, hospice branded t-shirts and more. Please contact us on 01772 324540 or email fundraising@stcatherines.co.uk
