Alice targets £100K on her second charity cycle challenge

Alice Greaves, of Old Dalby, who is being treated for cancer, is organising her second ‘Alice Can’ from her home village to the Norfolk coastal town of Sheringham.

The proceeds of the cycle ride, on Saturday August 23, will go to Hope Against Cancer, a charity which funds and supports cancer research and trials in Leicestershire and Rutland.

Last year’s effort – over 126 miles – raised an incredible £96,000 for the cause and Alice hopes to top that figure this year.

Alice, who was diagnosed with breast cancer aged 24 in 2023, said: “I cycled with 50 others to raise vital funds for the charity and this year we are aiming to raise £100,000.

"We are looking for cyclists to join us in August.”
