This years Ride and Stride will be on Saturday 14th September.  Last year a group of seven walkers from St John's participated in this event starting with all the churches in Wokingham which were open and walking via off-road footpaths to Crowthorne.  We raised almost £250 and received half of this back to add to our church funds.   Last year the event raised £19,000 for Berkshire Churches and this is a vital source of funds to assist with the expenses of maintaining churches in our county.

Find out more at www.berkschurchestrust.co.uk/.  The Trust needs new area co-ordinators for Bracknell and Wokingham.  This is not an arduous role, and much is now done centrally. If you think you could help get in touch at: rideandstrideberks@gmail.com

We hope to have more information next month.  If anyone would again like to walk or cycle on Saturday 14th  September 2019 please let me know.
