Rotarian Sandra Conway is out practising with her Bikeathon team on the quiet lanes around Smallwood.

Sandra has registered her team called 'Wheelies' who will be riding their cycles and raising money for Rotary-Congleton during the weekend of June 25th to 28th.

Fifty percent of the money they raise will be used to support Rotary good causes while the remaining 50% will be returned to Sandra's chosen charity.

In this case, Sandra has nominated Rotary as her charity so all the money that her team raises will go to the club. And it doesn't stop there because sponsorship money attracts Gift Aid, every £1 given by a tax paying donor is worth £1.25.

All the details including how to register your own team to take part and sponsorship forms to help raise money are on Rotary-Congleton's special Bikeathon website.

An important point is that you do need to register and read and understand the event rules in order to take part.
