From £400 to £9,236: Devon bikers go the extra mile for FORCE!
What started as an idea between two friends to ride their motorbikes around Devon and raise a few hundred pounds…
In 2027, FORCE celebrates 40 years of supporting local people affected by cancer.
Since 1987, thousands of people have turned to FORCE for care, support and reassurance at some of the most difficult times in their lives. Our first 40 years have only been possible because of the incredible support of our local community
Now, as we celebrate this special anniversary, we’re asking you to help us be here for the next 40 years.
Will you do one thing for FORCE?
There are lots of ways to be part of our 40th anniversary:
Whatever you choose to do, you’ll be helping ensure local people affected by cancer can continue to turn to FORCE when they need us most
Celebrating 40 years together
Throughout 2027, we’ll be celebrating the people, stories and moments that have made FORCE what it is today, as well as looking ahead to the future.
Our first 40 years were possible because of you. Please help us be here for the next 40

Many people organise events to raise money for FORCE, which is just fabulous and hugely appreciated. Whatever you do, you’ll be helping to improve the lives of local cancer patients, their families and carers.
Volunteers are an essential and valued part of our charity and their contribution is vital. They help us maintain the amazing services we provide and we couldn’t do it without them.
By choosing FORCE Cancer Charity, your business will be helping us to continue supporting people affected by cancer right here in Devon.
In addition, by supporting FORCE you’ll also be encouraging engagement, team building and motivation for your employees.
We feel that’s a recipe for success!
As a charity, FORCE is here to bring care, advice and support to local people facing some of the most difficult times of their lives.
And we couldn’t do it without the kindness of those who choose to remember us in their Wills.
By leaving a gift to FORCE in your Will, you’ll be investing in our mission to continue offering the best possible support for people dealing with cancer – face to face and close to home.
We host a wide range of events throughout the year, offering something for everyone and catering to all our supporters. From our much-loved in-house events, such as the Nello and the Great West Run, to exciting challenges further afield, including trekking the Great Wall of China and climbing Snowdon, there are plenty of ways to get involved, challenge yourself and support FORCE.
