Where your money goes

In 2009, the first ever Newcastle Harley-Davidson and Buell® Ride Aid is being staged in support of the drive to raise £25,000 for a new breast cancer scanning machine at the Newcastle Royal Victoria Infirmary (RVI).

The infirmary has provided for the community for more than 250 years and the scanner would make a big difference to the level of service and care that the cancer department can offer.

"I am delighted that the team at Newcastle Harley-Davidson is dedicating its inspiring ride from John O Groats to Lands End to help us raise funds for our breast cancer care unit," said RVI Consultant Andy Griffiths. "The Scinti scanning equipment is an extremely important facility that benefits a large number of women with breast cancer, as it minimises the extent of surgery that our patients need during treatment.
 
A big thank you to Newcastle Harley-Davidson and Buell, everyone who is helping to make this happen and for the generous donations that are being pledged."

All proceeds generated within the dealership, from events and through the raffle will be donated directly to Mr Griffiths. All online donations pledged via the dedicated Justgiving page  justgiving.com will go to supporting registered charity Newcastle Heath Care Charity. Proceeds from Ride Aid will be passed on to RVI by the charity.
