About the Event
Take one hour. Stand against stigma. Support peer recovery.
From 12:00pm on Saturday 5th September to 12:00pm on Sunday 6th September, Recovery Cymru will keep two static bikes moving for a full 24 hours.
The two bikes will sit side by side to represent peer support: people using their own experiences to encourage, understand and support one another. Because nobody should have to face recovery alone.
We’re inviting members, volunteers, supporters, local businesses and our wider community to each take on a one-hour cycling slot and help challenge the stigma surrounding alcohol and other drugs.
what are you fundraising for?
Every donation helps Recovery Cymru continue providing free, confidential, non-judgemental peer support for people affected by alcohol and other drugs.
Your support helps people to:
-
Find someone who truly understands because they’ve been there themselves.
-
Build confidence, connection and hope through peer support.
-
Access one-to-one support, groups and recovery-focused activities.
-
Feel less isolated and more able to ask for help without fear of judgement.
-
Become part of a welcoming recovery community where they can continue growing long after their first conversation.
Together, we’re helping to create communities where recovery is understood, supported and celebrated.
