A flagship event in Myton’s fundraising calendar, the Cycle Challenge offered participants four scenic yet demanding routes — 30km, 50km, 100km, and 100 miles — all beginning and ending at Myton Hospice in Warwick. Riders were treated to breathtaking views of the Warwickshire countryside, fully signposted routes, well-stocked support stations, and a warm, community-focused atmosphere.
To date, the 2025 challenge has raised an impressive £53,000, with donations still coming in. These vital funds will enable Myton to continue providing its outstanding palliative and end-of-life care, completely free of charge, to those who need it most.
Karen Pattison, Executive Director at Meriden Hospital, said:
"Taking part in such an inspiring community event, and seeing the passion and generosity of every cyclist, volunteer and supporter, was incredibly moving. We are proud to support Myton’s mission and to raise awareness of the remarkable work they do for local families facing life-limiting illnesses."
The event was a true celebration of community spirit — filled with determination, encouragement, and a shared sense of purpose.
Chris Willmott, Partnerships Manager at The Myton Hospices, added:
"A huge, huge thank you to you all for your support, sponsorship, and hands-on involvement in our wonderful event. We can’t do what we do without amazing people like you and organisations like yours."
Meriden Hospital extends heartfelt thanks to the entire Myton team, the dedicated organisers, volunteers, and every rider who took part in this meaningful event. Your efforts are helping to make a real difference in the lives of so many.
