Biggleswade Campus help fight Ebola
The BikeAThon
PBCC children attending Biggleswade Campus from years 7 to 13, and other volunteers, had a sponsored bikeathon round Grafham Water on Saturday 21st February to raise money for the British Red Cross Ebola Appeal. A target of £5,000.00 was exceeded before the bikeathon even began and the appeal closed at £6,181.00 (plus Gift Aid)!! Click here to view the MyDonate page. Well done everyone, and a big thank you to our generous sponsors ! …
About the venue
Set in 2,400 acres of beautiful countryside, the Grafham Water 10-mile cycle path caters for all abilities, from gentle tarmac paths for the young to challenging terrains for the daring. The Rutland Cycling shop offers sale or hire of a wide range of quality bikes and a number of our riders used their cycles for the day. They offered a generous discount to riders supporting the Red Cross appeal – Thank you Rutland Cycling!!

Bible says that when we confess our wrongs (I John 1:9), believe that He died to save us, as well as ask Him to transform us by
His power, He really makes His house in our hearts and also offers us brand-new life and also a new outlook (2 Corinthians 5:17).
