Cure Leukaemia’s London 2 Paris 2025 Event Sells Out as Over 200 Riders Prepare to Take on the 300-Mile Challenge

Cure Leukaemia is delighted to announce that our annual cycling challenge, London 2 Paris 2025, has officially sold out, with over 200 riders set to embark on the 300-mile journey from London to Paris in June 2025. The riders aim to raise over £400,000, a sum equivalent to funding eight clinical research nurses, who play a critical role in delivering life-saving trials for blood cancer patients across the UK, for entire year.

Adding to the excitement of this milestone event, Cure Leukaemia is proud to welcome Flutter Entertainment as the Headline Sponsor for London 2 Paris 2025. A team of 30 riders from Flutter, representing different regions across the UK, will take part in the challenge, further solidifying the company’s commitment to making a meaningful difference in the fight against blood cancer.

Kerry McNally, Flutter Entertainment’s Director of Global Corporate Social Responsibility, commented:
“At Flutter, we are committed to making a positive impact on 10 million lives by 2030, and we are incredibly proud to continue our support for Cure Leukaemia through the London 2 Paris challenge. This event not only raises vital funds but also brings together a community determined to make a difference. We are thrilled to have a team of our riders take on this challenge and help fund critical research nurses who provide hope to so many.”

Furthermore, the 2025 London 2 Paris jersey will proudly feature Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP on the front and back of the jersey as the Senior Event Sponsor, demonstrating their continued support for Cure Leukaemia’s mission, with 22 riders from Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP taking part in the event and aiming at raising over £75,000!

Matthew Hope, a Partner in the Finance & Capital Markets team of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, added:

“We are proud to sponsor the London 2 Paris event alongside our client, Flutter Entertainment. It’s exciting to see so many clients and colleagues taking part to support Cure Leukaemia. The funds raised via this event will be important in supporting Cure Leukaemia and will contribute to vital research that saves lives. Team Simpson Thacher is determined to make it to Paris in good spirits and committed to raising as much money as possible.”

With the event selling out well in advance, the excitement and momentum continue to grow as Cure Leukaemia’s London 2 Paris 2025 promises to be another record-breaking year in the fight against blood cancer.
