I am taking part in Dorset Ride & Stride 2026 to raise money for the conservation of St Michael's Church, Over Compton. St Michael's Church is a small rural church that is in urgent need of structural repairs.

We will be cycling with family and friends between as many churches as possible in the local area, supporting the preservation and care of these historic buildings.

Held across Dorset, the event provides financial support to local churches and offers a chance to explore the community. Funds raised are shared between the participant's chosen church and the county's Historic Churches Trust, helping to safeguard these buildings for future generations.
