Cycle Party 25

The Cycle party was a happy, noisy, colourful event where 44 Cyclists turned up to raise funds for Christian Aid.

Thank you to everyone who came and added to the fun

It was organised to perfection by Stephen Dominy and led by Ray Craig dressed as Batman.

Ray led the party at a fair pace chased by a peloton of cyclist which fortunately stopped at each major junction to allow the laggards to catch up. 

Prizes were awarded for the best dressed bike and the best dressed cyclist.

It was great fun, and we have had a good number of generous donations both online and in envelopes.  As a surprise after the event, an anonymous donor has given an additional £10 for every cyclist: £444.  The total raised to date, including on this web page is £2031.  Thank you to all our generous donors!!!  And we are of course still open for top-ups!

And thank you to all the people who helped make this such a success.

In Guatemala, farmers like Aurelia are battling extreme weather, but with Christian Aid’s support, they’re learning skills to protect their farms and provide for their families. 

Your support can help fund this vital training. Just £20 could buy two pounds of climate-resilient seeds, diversifying a family’s crop and increasing their resilience against the effects of the climate crisis.

The webpage is still open for donations.
