What is crowdfunding?
Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.
The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.
Story
The bells of St Giles Church Leigh on Mendip were last rehung in 1910, that's over 100 years ago. We have an active band of ringers in the village and we would like to keep the bells ringing for the next 100 years and in order to do that major maintenance work needs to be performed.
I am cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats in order to raise money for the bell restoration project. You can sponsor me by donating on this page. You can find out more information on my bike ride on my tadhill.com website.
