Supporting and celebrating our churches and chapels
The Trust helps to fund the repair of churches and chapels in Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, and part of Barnet.
We give grants for conservation, restoration, development, and offer tours, talks and events.
Bike 'n Hike 13 September 2025
In 2024 our annual sponsored fundraising event - Bike 'n Hike, raised £103,607 to help local churches. We can't thank our volunteers and participants enough.
Bike 'n Hike 2025 is on Saturday 13 September. Would you like to take part?
Get sponsored to visit historic churches on foot, by bike or other means. It's a fun way to fundraise for your own local church too. Half the sponsor money goes to the church named by the person taking part. Why not get together with some friends and join vital fundraiser, because while churches continue to need repairs, building costs have soared.
Find more on our Bike 'n Hike page.
