South Warwickshire Foundation Trust (SWTF) is set to host a one day community cycling challenge in support its NHS Charity,

The event will take place on Thursday 21 May 2026 between 8am and 8pm.

Static bikes will be set up at three of SWTF's hospital sites including Warwick Hospital and Leamington Spa Hospital.

This year the event also marks a special milestone for the SWFT Charity, which celebrates its 30th year of supporting local NHS services in South Warwickshire.

The third site will be at Stratford-upon-Avon Hospital.

Participants can also choose to take part at participating local gym sites.

Organisers said: "Join us for a day of movement, motivation, and making a difference!"

Riders are invited to take on the challenge by cycling on our bikes, choosing how long they will cycle for (with the minimum length of time to choose being 30 minutes) and to raise a minimum of £30.
