Tour de 4 2026

After an impactful first year, Tour de 4 is back. It’s encouraging people to get on their bikes and help change the conversation around Stage 4 cancer. Launched following Sir Chris Hoy’s diagnosis, the campaign shines a light on what a Stage 4 diagnosis can look like. It also shows that it’s possible to live well and find joy alongside it. Chris’ vision is to bring together people living with Stage 4 cancer and those around them. Friends, families and supporters can all take part in whatever way they can. That could be cycling, sharing stories or fundraising for the charities that matter most to them. Please donate or share to help spread the word and support people living with Stage 4 cancer

    I am amazed and profoundly grateful for your generosity. Nearly £2k in less than a week. It’s still more than 4 months before the event so please keep giving as you are able. I’m especially grateful for the kindness of strangers. Those who have donated but I don’t know who you are. Thank you ❤️ Photo: This is Jim walking away from Beinn a’Ghlo in September 2024. It was our last hill walk together, as medication and heart/cancer have made it too much of a struggle since.

    I made a bit of a blunder with the initial fundraising post I put on Facebook. I thought I was sharing the GoFundMe link for my pot, but actually I managed (somehow) to set up a Facebook fundraiser for Prostrate Cancer UK… so 4 generous donations were received but did not show up in this pot… On further investigation, I can confirm these donations have gone direct to Prostrate Cancer UK so won’t appear on this fundraising page. So a massive thank you to Mairi, Chris, Louise and Emma for your generosity! X
