Oxfordshire Historic Churches Trust Sponsored Ride + Stride
Since the Trust was founded in 1964 as The Friends of Oxfordshire Churches several million pounds has been given in grants to churches of many denominations within the county. About half of this money has been raised by the annual Ride + Stride event.
The first Sponsored Ride + Stride in Oxfordshire was held in 1986 as just a bicycle ride and the event has been growing ever since. Last year, Holy Trinity Church’s Ride + Stride raised over £135.
The Ride + Stride is also an effective way of raising funds for our church as 50% of the sponsorship money (excluding gift aid) comes straight back to the church if it is designated by the Riders and Striders.
The Parochial Church Council is very grateful to those who have taken part in the past and hopes that there will be a desire to take part this year. Information and sponsorship forms are available from Peter Hardman (Hon Secretary to Holy Trinity Church PCC) – Tel: 01295 780391 or Email hardman214
