The Spinnaker Spinners's Fundraising Page

The Spinnaker Spinners is cycling Palace to Palace for St Christopher's

4 Days. 283 Miles. Over 50 Cyclists.

One Extraordinary Cause. 

Taking on the challenge of cycling from Crystal Palace to the Palace of Versailles on 10th -14th September 2025, all in support of our local hospice. 

We're Rosemary, Will and Andrea; we're cycling from London to Paris for St Christopher's Hospice

As a team based locally, we have seen the incredible work that St Christopher's does first-hand, and cannot emphasize enough the incredible difference it makes to families, friends, and loved-ones at such a critical time.

St Christopher’s Hospice exists to promote and provide skilled and compassionate palliative care of the highest quality. 

Their vision is of a world in which all dying people and those close to them have access to appropriate care and support, when they need it, wherever they need it and whoever they are.

They rely on the generosity of their community, through fundraising campaigns like this, to continue providing our specialist palliative care and familiy care services free of charge.

The money we are raising is going directly to St Christopher's - we are covering the costs of the long cycle ride separately.


More to come about both the charity ride, our training for it, and other things we are doing to support St Christopher's  - stay tuned!


Thank you for your support.

Pushing training up a (painful) notch!

Monday 16th Jun
Will's heart-rate tracker died half way, so there's no data on how EXHAUSTING this was. Around half the per-day distance of the real cycle, so some way to go before we're remotely ready for this September! (also lots of chaffing and broken waterbottle holders and pushing up hills...). Still smiling though :)

First training with the St C's cycle team!

Tuesday 3rd Jun
Really lovely to meet the rest of the fundraisers! (slightly intimidated by their cycle prowess...)
