bikers gather to boost leukemia research

The BONE-shaker MARROW-thon ride between the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham and the National Brewery Centre in Burton-on-Trent was launched by leukaemia fighter Katherine Sinfield in 2014. The ride returns this year on Sunday, 10 April.

To date, the charity ride has helped to raise more than £3200, which is split equally between Cure Leukaemia, Anthony Nolan and the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

Sinfield, 35, said: “The motorcycling community has always supported our event and we hope that they will turn out in force again this year to help us to continue the fight against blood cancer.

“As per usual, the ride will help to showcase the invaluable work of the Shropshire and Staffordshire Blood Bikes, and their riders will be present at the ride to speak about their life-saving volunteer work.”

Organisers ask all bikers taking part to make a £5 donation on the day.
