This is the Support Team's fundraising page, accompanying 35 amateur cyclists from Hartley Wintney, Hampshire on a 300 mile trip back home from Malle, Belgium. We set off to Malle, twinned with HW, on Thursday 22nd August, and return on Monday 26th August.

We are a team of 12 volunteers, namely Michael, Hilary and Mal (advanced party - signposting), Allen and Rick (lorry), Penny, Helen and Joanna (the all-important food wagon), Bruce and Neil (the indispensable bike repair team), and picking up any pieces at the back, Alison and Sarah (first aid).

So, if you don't have a personal connection with an individual cyclist and would prefer to make a donation to the team as a whole, we would greatly value your support!

The trip has been organised by St John's Church, to help pay for its new Church Centre. However 10% of total raised by the team is being given to St Michael's Hospice, Basingstoke, and 10% is being given to The Matthew Elvidge Trust, a local charity raising mental health issues amongst young people across the UK.

If you would prefer to make a paper donation, cheques can be made payable to St John's HW PCC. Further information can be found at the official bike ride website: http://www.hwbikeride.org.uk/

Thank you for your support!
