About Us
Ride and Stride is our annual fundraising event for Oxfordshire Historic Churches Trust [OHCT]
When a historic church in Oxfordshire is wanting to improve its building for access, community use or repair the building to keep it in use, then they usually turn to OHCT to help fund that project.
Ride and Stride is a great day out.
As a family, it is a chance to explore some of the church buildings around you and raise funds for them. Plan a route, find some sponsors, pack a picnic and go.
Why not get a group of you together and form a team. Walk, cycle or do something more creative. Plan a route, find some sponsors and enjoy the day out with friends by visiting some amazing local community buildings.
Or maybe this is the chance to find some space for yourself and go for a walk or cycle to enjoy the fresh air, the space to breathe and, of course, visit some amazing churches that have been the place of reflection for centuries.
Why we're raising money
Ride and Stride's unique approach means that any funds raised can be split 50-50 between your local church and OHCT.
There is no limit on how much you raise. There are no restrictions on what your local church chooses to do with their 50%.
The 50% that goes to OHCT will be used exclusively on funding grants for local churches within Oxfordshire.
On our website, you'll find a paper sponsor form if that is helpful. You'll also find a route planner and all kinds of information to make this a great day out.
