Ride & Stride for London Churches

JULY 23, 2011  &  Saturday JULY 14th 2012

For 30 years the National Churches Trust has been helping to organise the Ride & Stride event throughout the country - a fun event that attracts as many as 13,000 people of all ages every year who walk and ride to local churches, raising sponsorship money that goes to help the churches they visit.

For only the 2nd year this event took place in London on Saturday July 23, 2011 and the Heritage of London Trust hosted the event.

A wide variety of churches around London were opened Saturday July 23rd 2011 for you to visit and explore on the Ride & Stride event.
