JustGiving is supporting Ride + Stride and making it even easier for you to collect sponsorship for your fundraising efforts. It doesn’t matter if you raise £2, £20 or £200. Every penny raised means you will continue to fund the great work being carried out by the County Churches Trusts across the country, saving and protecting our unique heritage.
We’ve listed below the local County Trusts with JustGiving pages. You can also use these links to forward to your supporters, so that they can create fundraising pages for the appropriate local County Trust. Alternatively, they can fundraise for the National Churches Trust here.

Ride + Stride is organised by the County Churches Trusts, voluntary organisations that raise money for the restoration and maintenance of historic churches and chapels, supported by the National Churches Trust. The event takes place across most of the country and has been an annual event since it began in Suffolk in 1981.
A fun (and healthy!) way to raise money, it happens on the second Saturday of September every year. People from across the country take part riding or walking between churches to raise money. They have a really memorable and enjoyable time visiting historic gems and being treated to biscuits and refreshments along the way. Some have even shared their favourite routes for others to try. For more information, please visit www.rideandstrideuk.org or the Ride + Strides Facebook page.
