Bike ride for Walpole Old Chapel, 9 September 2023
Our annual sponsored Ride & Stride, raising money to make grants to churches and chapel of all denominations towards repair and restoration costs in this our 50th Anniversary year.

Story

50% of the money raised by Paul will go to Walpole Old Chapel and the other 50% to the SHCT. The Chapel is now on Historic England's 'Heritage at Risk' List and still hoping to raise funds for replacement of the render on the walls which has been delayed by the Covid pandemic. Much has been achieved since then though with an active and growing Friends scheme, creation of a stand alone charity with 5 trustees and an expanding events programme as well as a 'Discovery Project' looking at the Chapel's history and people associated with it.
