Every year, on the second or third Sunday in September, Gloucestershire Historic Churches Trust (GHCT) I organise a Ride and Stride fundraising event. So soon after our fete is not a great time for us, but at their suggestion we’ve set up a just giving page www.justgiving.com/page/bitton-1725353605062 where we can make gift-aided donations
St Mary’s owe GHCT a huge debt of gratitude. They have given £19,000 to the current appeal and, through an introduction to Rausing Trust, have enabled us to raise another £5,000. They have previously given very generously to other restoration and repair appeals.
It would be very nice if we could make some repayment for their generosity to our current appeal.
