Cycle Sisters 100km ride empowers women and supports Gaza

Cycling event brings women together for fitness, friendship, and fundraising.

Posted on: 8 October 2025

Care Group proudly sponsored Cycle Sisters’ annual 100km cycling event, on Sunday 5 October, which brought together 35 women from across Northeast London and Essex. Despite stormy weather forcing a date change, the atmosphere remained vibrant and community driven. 

The event raised over £3,000, with 75% going to Cycle Sisters to support free weekly rides for women, and 25% donated to Medical Aid for Palestinians. Many of the women, including mums from across London, cycled in small groups. During the ride they took moments to rest and connect in local nature parks. 

Haadiyah Cassam, Sustainability Officer at the Care Group, said: “It was very well organised and a supportive space. It was lovely to get to meet new people across London, all passionate about the same sport and cause. You can really see how Cycle Sisters create a community and solidarity in these times.” 

This initiative reflects Care Group’s commitment to tackling health inequalities and empowering diverse communities through inclusive, active projects.
