Tour30
A brave (or daft) team from Pilgrims Hospices will be cycling to 30 hospices in the UK covering a distance of over 600 miles.
The aim of the challenge is to raise awareness of hospice care during dying matters week 2012 and to celebrate Pilgrims Hospices 30th anniversary. At each hospice visited, a swap of patient artwork will take place and all the pieces will be brought back to Pilgrims Hospices to form an exhibition that will further promote hospice care.
Guest riders from each area are invited to join the team for a leg of the journey. All hospices are encouraged to use the visits to seek as much publicity in their own area as possible to help raise awareness of hospice care.
There will also be a lot of twitter and facebook activity during the week which is a great way to connect and track progress of the team. Look out for #Tour30 @pilgrimshospice.
