Cycle Glasgow 2010 - support leukaemia research

The University of Glasgow is organising its 8th sponsored cycle, continuing to raise essential funds for the Paul O'Gorman Leukaemia Research Centre, Glasgow.  This is a fun family cycling event designed for riders of all abilities.  You can chose to cycle 13 or 26 miles, starting and finishing in Kelvingrove Park.

To date, with your support, we have raised more than £288,000 through our sponsored cycles.  This money was integral for opening the facilities and providing the essential infrastructure and equipment needed to run the centre.  Last year saw an 85% increase in numbers with more than 500 enthusiastic participants gathering in Kelvingrove Park.

The year 2009 saw very successful grant applications and record fundraising allowing the expansion of scientific staff by 40% in a single year – a huge achievement.
