The Nello 2019 – Il Ventesimo
This is a feature-length version of a film to celebrate the biggest single fundraising event on FORCE Cancer Charity’s calendar, which reached a significant milestone this year. The Nello cycle ride celebrated its 20th birthday. In honour of its Italian connections, the 2019 ride on Sunday June 30 was dubbed Il Ventesimo (The Twentieth). Since the first Nello Century Cycle Challenge in 2000, the ride has raised more than £900,000 for FORCE. That money has been vital to supporting anyone locally affected by cancer, face-to-face and close to home. The target for 2019 was to raise a record £100,000, taking the overall total from The Nello past the magic £1million mark.
