Bike for Behçet’s Run for the Rare

This fundraising challenge was the brainchild of Rachael and Laura who survived shielding during the COVID-19 pandemic by running and/or cycling.

With the help of Clare they came up with the idea to cycle or run the distance between the three Behçet’s Centres of Excellence… a total of 226 miles!

Next came the job of recruiting people to take part. Meet the team, many of whom live with Behçet’s. Click on the images below for more photos and read their inspiring stories.

As the team crossed the virtual ‘finish-line’ at the online AGM & Conference on Saturday 17 October 2020 Rachael announced that the total had reached an astounding £10,125! Thank you to everyone who took part and donated.
