We've raised over £650,000 for charity since 2021 — and the friendships that formed along the way matter just as much as the totals.
What We've Raised
That figure includes £100,000+ from a single ride through the French Riviera, Monaco, and the Italian border. We work with a small number of trusted charity partners — including the Read Foundation, Cheadle Masjid, Francis House, Seashell, Alzheimer's Society, Moya Cole Hospice, and Gatley Masjid — and every charity is thoroughly vetted before we commit, so supporters know exactly where their money is going.
Real Impact, Beyond the Numbers
The money raised is only part of the story. Brothers who didn't know each other before The Fajr Club have become genuine friends — training together, then travelling together, with several going on to perform Umrah as a group. In a digital age where you can pray at the same mosque for years without knowing the people beside you, that's exactly the kind of barrier we set out to break down. Sport gave people a reason to show up consistently, and the friendships followed.
That same community has also given back directly to the mosque: members of The Fajr Club helped secure government funding for cycle shelters, turning what started as a cycling club into practical support for the place that brought everyone together in the first place.
