The London to Brighton Bike Ride was a huge success for Team Family Action! With a total of 76 riders in our crew,14 of whom are Family Action staff, pedals were flying as they took to the 55-mile route on Sunday. Over £27,000 was raised to support our work in local communities around the UK. We're so grateful for the efforts of everyone who took part.

Lands End to John O’Groats. 9 days. 1010 miles. 57,988 ft elevation. 69 hours in the saddle. Completed. 🎉🍾 To say it’s been a rollercoaster of emotions, typical British weather at it’s finest and most extreme (to say the least) and I got to experience an amazing route through the country 🤌🏻 Huge shoutout to Threshold Sports & Babble for an incredible event and to all the volunteers and staff that made it happen. And thanks to NewDay & Family Action for their support in the run up to the event! Now it’s time to go through the emails and switch the out of office off…

A group of incredible young carers from Leeds created unforgettable moments this summer! Pushing their boundaries with exhilarating outdoor activities at TCV Skelton Grange and Lineham Farm, they found relaxation, friendship and pure joy amidst nature. The motive? To escape from their caring roles, inhale fresh air, and mingle with more of Mother Nature - something they don't often get the chance to do. Find out just how we’re supporting these amazing young individuals and their families: https://bit.ly/47goex5. #Leeds #YoungCarers

“Lord Darzi’s report on the NHS is sobering to read, and many of its findings chime with our experience as a service provider, which we fed in to the review. The families we work with are often waiting far too long for NHS assessment, diagnosis and service provision. Working more closely with the VCS in the community could support families whilst they are waiting for NHS services, and in some cases, alleviate need at a much earlier point and reduce pressure on the NHS.”- Sir David Holmes CBE Read more about our health and wellbeing services here Health & wellbeing: https://bit.ly/3z3Dy3O
