Parish Organiser Information 2024 - Wiltshire Historic Churches Trust

Ride and Stride 2024 will be the 40th Anniversary of Wiltshire’s Ride and Stride annual fundraising event (originally called The Great Cycle Ride).

To mark this momentous achievement, Wiltshire Historic Churches Trust will be providing a special commemorative six inch coaster/plaque for every Church that registers and contributes on the day, either by having their Church open with refreshments for Riders and Striders and/or by taking part in fundraising. The plaques have been funded by a bequest from the late Lord Brooke of Sutton Mandeville.

Please will you therefore ensure that you register that your Church will be taking part as soon as possible.
