Story

We are taking part in a sponsored Cycle ride from Hartley Wintney to in aid of church building fund.  This will be of real benefit to the whole community via raising much needed funds for their church hall, as well as providing a challenging ride. Once in , Having crossed the Channel from to Ouistreham we will continue through the small villages and medieval market towns of northern . With long days in the saddle and some strenuous hill-climbs the sight of the Arc de Triomphe, our finishing point, will evoke a real sense of achievement.

My daughter Evie attends the Village Green pre-school which is attached to and we have many friends who live in the village where we've had many fun times. Since recently deciding to get fit by cycling, this will be a great personal challenge and a chance to spend time with friends, meet local people with a common interest and help fund the new church building and pre-school facilities.


Karl Cheshire

Having lived in Hartley Wintney for the last 4 years, I have become one of those many people in the village who think they may never live anywhere else!!  I was first introduced to Hartley Wintney at the time of meeting my now wife; George, who grew up here.  We've since been married at St Mary's, Winchfield, and our 2 children; Lola and William, have both been christened at .  Lola also attends the .  Since accepting this challenge from Karl and Damo (the other one) over a pint or two last Christmas, I have rapidly realised the enormity of our quest!!  But there's no doubt, it represents a great opportunity to help contribute towards the New Buildings Project for and help improve facilities in the village for generations to come.

So please donate now and help us build for future generations.
