London to Paris Bike Ride
We did it
On 8th July 2024 we successfully raised £4,005 ( + est. £470.50 Gift Aid ) with 83 supporters in 35 days

We are riding c300km from London to Paris to raise money for Flying Start, British Airways' charity partnership with Comic Relief.

On Friday 28 June, eight of us will be setting off from Greenwich Park heading for Paris via Newhaven, Dieppe and Beauvais, arriving under the Eiffel Tower on Sunday 30 June. It will be around 300km in total, with more hills thrown in than I would like!

I won't lie - I am a bit scared given I am more accustomed to sitting on the sofa than I am undertaking endurance bike rides but it is all for a great cause, and I would really appreciate your support!

Flying Start is the global charity partnership between British Airways and Comic Relief. Together, we want to help people in the UK and around the world to have the best possible start in life and the chance to have a brighter future. Since our partnership began in 2010, British Airways customers and colleagues have raised over £28m, an incredible amount that we are immensely proud of!
