CYCLISTS RAISE OVER £80K FOR WARWICK CHILDREN’S CHARITY


Fifty cyclists have raised more than £80k for Warwickshire children’s charity Molly Ollys after battling downpours and punctures to complete a gruelling 190-mile bike ride, ending in south Warwickshire.


Among the local riders taking part was Tim Ollerenshaw, from Hatton Hark, who established the charity with his wife Rachel in 2011 following the death of their eight-year-old daughter Molly from a rare kidney cancer.


Tim, 66, was proud to be able to join the fundraisers after battling back to rude health following a heart attack and subsequent triple bypass operation just two years earlier.


Molly Ollys works to support children with terminal or life-limiting illnesses and their families and help with their emotional wellbeing. As well as providing wishes, they donate therapeutic toys and books to both children directly and to hospitals throughout the UK.


Mascot of the charity is a therapeutic toy lion called Olly The Brave who has his own Hickman line and a detachable mane which helps to explain and normalise the effects of chemotherapy. It forms part of an Olly The Brave pack that has now been handed out to more than 70 hospitals or health centres, along with a set of books from the charity’s exclusive Olly The Brave series.

Part of more than £4m raised to date, has also been used to fund the first Molly Olly consultant in paediatric medicine at Birmingham Children’s Hospital.


Donations in support of the cyclists are still welcome at: https://www.justgiving.com/page/tim-ollerenshaw2024- 1723813554183
