Get Behind Paddy McGuinness for his Ultra Endurance Cycle Challenge: How Will You Roll?
This November, Paddy McGuinness is gearing up for a challenge like no other: a 300-mile ride across three nations on a classic Chopper bike!
It’s not just about Paddy though – it’s also about YOU. We want you to take on your very own challenge-on-wheels, whether you do it solo, with family members, friends or colleagues, or as part of any other team. It’s a challenge everyone can enjoy together.
By taking part in this challenge you’ll be helping us to support vital projects that offer local support to children and young people all across the UK. Currently, we can only fund one in eight projects that ask for funding, and so we’ve never needed your help and support more.
How Will You Roll? You can cycle, scoot, skate, push a pram – simply join the fun in any way you can think of.
No likey – no bikey? No problem! You can use any wheels you like – it’s all about getting involved, getting fitter, spending quality time with others and raising vital funds.
Paddy is riding his own route, but your challenge can be done anywhere, anytime, in any way.

How your fundraising helps
Right now, BBC Children in Need can only fund 1 in 8 organisations that approach them for help. Children and young people are facing all kinds of difficulties, from poverty to illness. Together, we can change that.
Let’s make life lighter for children across the UK by rolling, fundraising and having a bit of fun along the way.
