18 cyclists called at St Martin's Church during this year's Ride and Stride. 12 were from benefice villages. We had 6 villagers who volunteered to welcome the riders and refreshments were available all day for them.

There will be a Beetle Drive in church on Saturday, 15th October, 4.00pm until 6.00pm. This is fun for all the family and with change of venue during the village hall rebuild, the game will be adapted to suit the location. There will be some chocolate prizes and refreshments at the end. Cost is £2 adults and £1 children to play plus a donation towards food costs. Everyone from across the benefice is welcome: no experience necessary!
