Land’s End to John O’Groats
Cycling from Land’s End to John O’Groats, the furthest possible distance in the British Isles, is a classic challenge that many dream of.
Fulfil that dream and cycle for Oasis!
Starting at Land’s End on the southwesterly tip of England, we pedal our way through Cornwall, over Dartmoor and north along the Welsh border, skirting the Lake District into Scotland, via lochs and mountains to the North coast and John O’Groats.
In all we will cover almost 1000 miles in 12 days, passing through some of the most stunning and remote countryside in the British Isles.
This is a tough challenge but a fabulous way to see the country, and one of the most rewarding things you will ever do!

This exciting cycle takes place twice a year. It costs £299 to register and the fundraising target is £3050.

Why fundraise for Oasis?
13-year-old Lauren visited the hospital’s A&E department after being beaten up by two boys trying to steal her bag. A&E staff are on the alert for triggers, such as types of wound or facial bruising, because the victims don’t always want to explain why they are injured. Lauren was identified by staff and referred to the Oasis team, which is based in an office behind A&E.
Researchers found that victims tend to return to A&E again and again and being assaulted tends to have a knock-on effect on other parts of their life. Lauren was fortunate to be picked up by the team on her first visit. Lauren’s grades at school were dropping and her teachers had reported increasingly bad behaviour.
Lauren recently sent a message to project staff: “I’m sad our time is coming to an end. A few months ago I would have kicked off if someone said the wrong thing but you have made my life less angry. Thank you.”
Your fundraising enables us to support more vulnerable young people like Lauren.
