BarbersRide is back for 2019 it’s set to be bigger and better than ever. This year the charity initiative has chosen to work with the Make A Wish Foundation, a charity that grants life-changing wishes for children across the UK with critical illnesses.

Since BarbersRide was founded three years ago, they have raised £21k for charity.

So what is BarbersRide?

BarbersRide is the brainchild of a group of passionate barber and biker buddies – their shared passion for barbering and motorbikes was the catalyst to planning a 5-day UK road-trip adventure. Eleven of the finest British barbers will feature in this year’s event which sees a motorbike tour starting at Liverpool at The Speakeasy Barbershop on Saturday 10 August. The epic journey will feature 5 intimate seminars hosted by in-demand barbers, all with the aim of raising money for @makeawishuk Children’s Charity. The last evening on Thursday 15 August will be hosted by Alan Beak at Ruger in Lytham St Annes when he will be joined by special guest Simon Shaw. Swagger & Jacks, Blacksail Barbers, Savills and Baldy’s Barbers will all host a seminar evening with a superb line up of barbers showcasing.

There is the option to join the full ride or purchase tickets for the Up Close & Personal evening seminars and after parties along the way. Sponsors include American Crew, Reuzel, Captain Fawcett, Harley Davidson and Hardgrind.
