RideLondon - Essex 100 (2023) charity places available

Lyme Disease Action has charity places available for this event if you didn't get a place in the ballot but would still like to take part.
Email: fundraising@LymeDiseaseAction.org.uk

LDA is run entirely by volunteers, so your fundraising would be very welcome to help this charity continue with raising awareness - by distributing leaflets for example - and also helping to fund valuable research into this disease.

Lyme disease is caught from the bite of an infected tick. If not recognised and treated early it can lead to debilitating symptoms. See more details about what to do if you find a tick:

    We have a runner who will be doing the London Marathon who has already raised over £3000 for the charity:

    Can you help with raising funds for this research and awareness raising if you are taking part in the event of RideLondon -Essex 100 - you can fundraise for us if you are - please.

    You don't need to commit to the target that Katie has already raised - just go for it and help us - the charity is run entirely by volunteers - help us help others - research, leaflet distribution, awareness raising...

    The first case of definite UK tick-borne encephalitis, as reported this month, was mountain biking in Yorkshire. TBE is v low risk; Lyme disease is higher. We work closely with health professionals and scientists as by helping them we can help patients. We are the only Lyme disease charity recommended by the UK HSA. Help us to get our evidence based information on tick-borne diseases out there!

    You can help by fundraising for LDA if you already have a place for RideLondon or if you still want a place email:

    LDA still has a place up for grabs if you can raise something for the charity it would be very much appreciated.


    Deadline today (27th April) at 16:00 for completion of the registration but I need to send you an invite before that deadline in order to complete the application and there have been difficulties this year with email addresses not receiving the invite so please don't leave it to the last hour to apply for a place.
