Making an impact for blood cancer patients across the globe

Funds raised by The Tour 21 are vital to support the Trials Acceleration Programme, a pioneering initiative that speeds up access to potentially life-saving treatments. The TAP Network links expert research nurses and clinical trial centres, enabling patients to benefit from cutting-edge therapies that might otherwise take years to reach them.

Each Tour 21 rider is connected with a TAP Centre, meaning you’ll have the chance to meet the teams and patients you will be making a difference to!

“The monies raised through this event helps fund clinical trials into new targeted medication that makes treatment for blood cancer much more bearable than traditional chemotherapy. I can testify as to how remarkable this type of treatment is as I am now on Cycle 3 (of 12) of my targeted medication plan to treat my Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia and the results are very encouraging as are the lack of side effects.”

Neil Jackson, Blood Cancer Patient, Tour 21 2024 Alumni
