Premier Motors Team Member Takes on London to Paris Charity Ride for Cure Leukaemia
Premier Motors Parts Advisor, Dave Searle, is preparing to take on an extraordinary challenge in June 2026 — cycling 500 kilometres from London to Paris to raise funds for the blood cancer charity Cure Leukaemia.
Taking place from Thursday 4th to Monday 8th June, the event will see Dave and hundreds of other riders cover the distance over four days to support a cause that is deeply personal to him.
“Every 27 seconds, someone somewhere in the world is diagnosed with a form of blood cancer,” says Dave. “This charity means a great deal to me because my dad fought leukaemia for three years before sadly passing away in 2013.”
Inspired by his father’s strength and encouragement, Dave is determined to complete what he describes as his toughest challenge yet.
“My dad always pushed me to take on new challenges. Knowing he’s with me in spirit for every kilometre will be my motivation and inspiration throughout the ride.”
Funds raised from the event will go towards funding specialist research nurses across the UK. These nurses play a vital role in connecting patients with pioneering clinical trials — giving them access to the latest treatments and helping to accelerate global progress towards curing blood cancer.
At Premier Motors, we’re proud to support Dave as he embarks on this remarkable journey. His determination, courage, and commitment to making a difference embody the values we hold as a team.
