In the wake of the cancelled Velo South in September, consultant urological surgeons from St Richard’s Hospital, Worthing Hospital and West Sussex Urology LLP took to the country lanes of West Sussex on Sunday, to complete their gruelling 100-mile bike ride in a bid to boost urology services for local patients.

The challenge, supporting Love Your Hospital, the dedicated charity of Western Sussex Hospitals Foundation Trust, has managed to raise over £20,000 already with another £8,000 confirmed.
