Oxfordshire

Oxfordshire Historic Churches Trust is proud to be part of the national Ride+Stride Day on Saturday 14 September 2019.

This is our major, annual fund-raising activity and Oxfordshire is consistently ranked in the top 5 counties for the amount raised.

The funds raised are spilt between the work of our Trust and local churches and chapels nominated by participating ‘StRiders’.  In 2018 we made Grants totalling £193, 439 to support restoration and re-ordering projects.

Ride+Stride is a vital fund-raising opportunity enabling OHCT to continue this work!

Whether you are a cyclist, walker or horse-rider – or indeed have a fancy to do something a little more unusual, this is a great way to get out and about in the fresh air, meet new people, see new places or spend a few hours as a family, doing something together.

Traditionally, participants have sought to visit as many churches or chapels as possible but this may not always be a practical way for you to join in – so what about:

• Visiting some local churches with your children (or grandchildren),
• Playing a ‘Spot the Features’ game – ideas of many quirky and fascinating features can be found in our “Curious and Curiouser” section written especially to intrigue children. Have a look on our website for details of these- they can be downloaded onto a phone or printed off for easy week
• Finding a different mode of transport – whether that is a vintage tractor or a skateboard (that perhaps for the younger participants).

More information is available on our website – click on the Join Ride + Stride arrow to find out more including an interactive route map to help plan your day.   And if you would like to find out more about the churches you can visit click on Our Churches on the home page.
