Ride and Stride - Update

UPDATE Monday 21 September 2026

Thank you all for your wonderful generosity! The current total raised is just over £1,433.75 - 238% of the £600 target set!!! And there is still time to donate if you haven't already done so...

Big thanks to Brian for his amazing efforts!

This year Brian Mackenzie again kindly volunteered for a sponsored bike ride on behalf of our wonderful mediaeval church and the Oxfordshire Historic Churches Trust , which supports churches like ours. This took place on Saturday 12 September 2026.

Sponsored bike rides on our local roads can be quite treacherous for families, but Brian offered to do it on behalf of all of us, so please will you support him by donating on his dedicated website here?

All of us at St Helen’s are most grateful for your support - any contribution is really welcome to help us meet our running costs of just under £500 per month...
