Dr Dawn Harper shows her ‘girl power’

TV’s Dr Dawn Harper, from Channel 4’s Embarrassing Bodies, along with 150 women-cyclists raised over £20,000 when they took to the saddle again for a women-only bike ride for a children’s charity on Sunday 27 May.

Dr Dawn Harper took part in the DIVA 100, Warwickshire ride which started at Menzies Welcombe Hotel Spa & Golf Club in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Dawn has been involved with Action Medical for several years: “I really enjoyed taking part in the DIVA 100 Warwickshire. It was a fantastic day with beautiful weather and a gorgeous route through pretty lanes. It was fabulous to see so many women out on bikes for a great cause."

The DIVA 100 ride wasn't her only cycling challenge in 2012 for Action Medical Research as she is also taking part in the London to Paris bike ride which sees 600 cyclists across four routes heading out of London on 18 July 2012 before arriving in Paris four days later.
