TV's Fern backs sponsored ride
The Chilterns Cycle Challenge, which takes place on March 19, sees people tackle a 35-mile or 74-mile route through the scenic Chilterns countryside, while raising money for the hospice charity.
The sponsored event starts and finishes in the centre of Aylesbury, and last year more than 500 participants and raised around £30,000.

Fern said: “I’m delighted to support Rennie Grove’s Chilterns Cycle Challenge.
“Its success is testament to the wonderful routes, which showcase some of our best local scenery, the on-the-day organisation which is always excellent, and of course the cause itself.
“I’ve met some of the charity’s amazing nurses, who are clearly so passionate about their work and committed to giving patients the best possible care.
