More than ever, historic churches need your support!
You can take part as an individual or with a team travelling between churches as part of your local church or maybe with friends from your work. For this please download the Standard Sponsorship Form below.
In Ride+Stride, Cyclists, Walkers and Horse Riders raise sponsorship money by visiting churches and chapels on any route of their choice – most people will be willing to sponsor you for a ‘set amount’ regardless of the number of places you visit. You can also check our list of churches that will be open on the day. The money raised (before Gift Aid) will be shared equally between GHCT and the church of your choice.
Just Giving
You will find instructions on the GHCT website at ‘R+S Just Giving Set Up Guide for existing supporters’ or ‘R+S Just Giving Set Up Guide for new supporters’

Individuals
Would you like to help raise funds for The Gloucestershire Historic Churches Trust? You can take part in this fun event by being sponsored to travel between our churches by walking, cycling, on horse back or on public transport!
Most of our Ride+Stride supporters join in with others from their church but you don’t have to represent a church at all – if you simply like to help save historic churches you can sign up on your own.
Churches
Would your church like to help raise funds for The Gloucestershire Historic Churches Trust? Your church can take part in this fun event by providing a team to be sponsored to travel between our churches. Subject to social distancing rules you may also take part by providing a welcome to Ride+Striders!
