Ride and Stride at St Peter’s

Posted on 03/09/2023 by St Peter's Church, Church Langton, Leicestershire

Saturday 9th September 2022

Ride + Stride is the single largest source of income for many Historic Churches Trusts enabling them to make Grants to places of Christian worship. Taking place on the second Saturday of September the funds raised can be split between the nominated Trust and the participants chosen church or chapel.

As ever Ride+Stride is a wonderful way to enjoy getting out and about safely as well as raising much-needed funds to support Grant applications from churches and chapels across the county.

St Peter’s is delighted to be taking part again this year – so look forward to welcoming you on foot, bike or hoof! If you are a bicycle or horse rider or a walker (Shanks’s pony?!), you would be most welcome to join this lovely event, which benefits so many churches locally and around the country.

St. Peter’s is looking for families to take part in this year’s Ride & Stride fundraiser on Saturday 9th September. A number of churches around here will be open for you to walk, cycle or ride to during the day. Church Warden Sue Johnson 07964073813 & Roz Folwell have sponsor forms and a list of local churches to plan your route or go on the website https://www.lhct.org.uk/ride-and-stride
