On 15 August 2026, a small group of cyclists from Christ Church Church Collective will set out on a 127km cycling fundraiser to visit all 12 Christ Churches in the Diocese, concluding at Christ Church Padgate.

This unique journey will connect our church family across the Diocese while raising funds for a re-ordering project at Christ Church Padgate (https://churchcollective.uk/christchurch). The team will pray for each church whilst on the journey.

We would be grateful for your sponsorship and support as we undertake this challenge - more details about the route and how to sponsor the ride can be found here: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/christchurchpadgatereordering

If you want to join us on part of the tour, be in touch with [email protected] We will be cycling at a pace of 20km/hour (roughly 13mph).

We would also encourage anyone who wants to, to meet on a bike, or on foot, at Christ Church Croft Car Park at 4.30pm, and we will make the final stage of the tour to Christ Church Padgate together!
