A team of PhD students from Medway School of Pharmacy have raised over £1000 for the British Heart Foundation by taking part in the legendary London-to-Brighton bike ride.

The team ‘Drug Peddlers’ were Lee Mun Ching, Kirsti Robertson, Jen Blackburn, Jackie Walsh, Ryan Catahan (University of Kent student), Filip Kunc, Colin Moore and Stuart Mather. Two other students, Kallie Bladon and Lou Krska were also part of the team and took part in training but unfortunately had to pull out before the day due to injury.

The British Heart Foundation is the UK’s biggest funder of heart research and the team were proud to raise money that will go toward pioneering research on coronary heart disease, the number one cause of death in the UK. Over 28,000 cyclists took part on Sunday 15th June for the beautiful but grueling course that starts on Clapham Common, South London and finishes on the Brighton seafront.
