TWO former Kelly College students will be cycling hundreds of miles from the bottom of the UK to the top to raise money for cancer research.

Mathew and Malcolm Rushbrooke attended Kelly College between 1987 and 1995 and now at the ages of 37 and 35 are attempting to cycle from Land's End to John O'Groats to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

The duo will leave Land's End on September 22 and hope to reach their destination by the end of the month. They will be supported by their wives Louise and Paula and daughter Elsie as well as their parents.

As Mathew is a scientist with Cancer Research UK in London, it is a cause that is close to his heart. For more information about the ride and to donate to the cause visit http://www.universally-challenged.com">www.universally-challenged.com
