Red Balloon Ride May 2023

One month. Two wheels. A whole lot of recovered young people!

For the third annual Red Balloon Ride we’re aiming to raise £5000 for young people recovering from poor mental health, bullying and other traumas and working towards getting back into education and enjoying life.

Will you help our young people?

Whether you’re staying committed to that New Years’ resolution, just getting into cycling or you’re already an absolute boss on a bike, this challenge is for you! In true Red Balloon style, you pick your own distance, time, route and fundraising goal.

Join with other Red Balloon Riders in collectively raising £5000 for Red Balloons Recovery Programme! You can set goals that suit you and you’ve got the whole of May, so pick a distance or time that fits with your other commitments.

You might consider teaming up with family, friends or people from work. A little rivalry helps on those chillier days!

You can register as an individual or a team and we will send you a participant pack and video with everything you need to know to get inspired, get set up and out on the road.

Will you raise £25, £100, £1000 or even £10,000? The choice is yours!
