Let’s change lives.
1026 km
in 75 hours.
Richard Doherty our newest trustee and his team is setting on an incredible challenge—cycling 1,026km with 13,000m of climbing, all to support the Buffalo Foundation. This isn’t just about endurance; it’s about giving young people in underserved communities access to sport, education, and opportunities that can change their lives.
Starting in London and pushing to Land’s End (twice!), Richard’s journey will test his resilience—just like the young athletes the Buffalo Foundation supports. Every kilometre ridden will help provide essential funding for sports programs, education initiatives, and entrepreneurial opportunities.
