Christmas hampers for needy families in and around Newport Pagnell

For many years a group of parishioners in St. Bede's Catholic Church in Newport Pagnell have delivered Christmas hampers to needy families and older people in Newport Pagnell and the surrounding area. Normally, this is financed by proceeds from the St. Bede's Christmas Bazaar. Unfortunately, there can't be a bazaar this year, but the hampers are needed more than ever. I would therefore like to do some fundraising by doing a virtual bike ride to Walsingham in Norfolk, because this is where I go to most years on a pilgrimage.

The distance by bike from Newport Pagnell to Walsingham is 111 miles. I will try to cover this distance in various stages by cycling around Milton Keynes (mainly on the Redway).

It would be great if you could sponsor me and help brighten up Christmas for a number of needy families. Any money that may be left over (I'm an eternal optimist!) will go to the Foodbank. Thank you for your support.
