Colmore BID: Charity Bike Ride
The Colmore BID team is taking part in a Charity Bike Ride! 🚴‍♂️💛
On ‘Big Yellow Friday’ 7 March, our team is taking on an epic charity bike ride to raise funds and awareness for the Children’s Liver Disease Foundation. Based in our District, the Children’s Liver Disease Foundation is dedicated to fighting all childhood liver diseases, and is part of British Liver Trust.
We are fundraising to help raise awareness of liver disease in children and offer some financial support for treatment and research. This isn’t spoken about enough, and this is why Big Yellow Friday is a great way to get involved.
Every mile we pedal brings us closer to making a real difference, and we need your support to keep us going!
“Many people don’t realise that liver disease is something which affects babies and children,” says Michelle Wilkins, Head of Children’s and Families Services at CLDF, which has now merged with the British Liver Trust to bring children’s and adult liver support services together. “But every year in the UK, around 400 children are diagnosed with a condition for which there is still no cure. A diagnosis means a lifetime of medical care and the effect on families is devastating.
“We provide those young people and their families with information, emotional support and a united voice. Big Yellow Friday is a great opportunity to raise much needed funds and awareness of these little-known but complex conditions, so we are delighted and very grateful to hear that Colmore BID have taken on this cycling challenge and look forward to hearing how it all goes!”
