One of the major fundraisers for this year’s BBC Children in Need – The One Show’s Rickshaw Challenge – will travel through the Tandridge district, before arriving in Lingfield around 7pm on Saturday 10th November.

The One Show presenter, Matt Baker, will pedal alongside six young riders who have all been supported by BBC Children in Need funded projects. The team will start at Calais and travel through Kent before heading to Lingfield and Dormansland Community Centre on the High Street. The team’s progress will be broadcast on The One Show throughout the week.

This year’s route will see the riders travel from Calais to the BBC’s studios in Salford, near Manchester.

Lingfield residents are encouraged to come and support the Rickshaw Challenge as it arrives in Lingfield or by raising money for Children in Need with their own cycling challenge.
