What is it? – A fun opportunity to raise money for our own church, and for other churches. Beds & Herts Historic give grants to churches to help with repairs and restoration (- we at All Saints have benefitted more than once.) “Bike ‘n’ Hike” is their main method of fund-raising, and involves visiting churches by any means you wish (- not just cycling and walking!), and being sponsored. Half the money you raise is returned to your own church!
How does it work? – Participants receive an envelope containing instructions, a sponsorship form, and a list of participating churches and chapels in Herts & Beds. You go to the church, sign your own form, and maybe take a photo before moving on to the next one.
So, what do I need to do? – Contact Barry to obtain your sponsorship envelope which contains all the instructions, as well as your form. Collect sponsors – Sue has set up a Just Giving page, linked to the Beds & Herts Bike ‘n’ Hike “Just Giving” page, that you can direct your friends and relations to, as an alternative to having them write on your form.
Plan your day. Have fun, stay safe. Go to “Bike ‘n’ Hike” website (or our “Bike ‘n’ Hike” Facebook page) for more inspiration. Post your photos there on your return and collect your money.
Help All Saints, Help other churches!
