    Posted on

     Ace Cafe London and Carl Fogarty are supporting Childline on Sunday 24th April as part of the Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs’ Ride It & Drive It Day 2022

    Carl said “‘Last year people from the Motorbike community came together and helped raise over £40,000 for the NSPCC’s Childline Service by taking part in the annual Drive It Day. For the first time ever we now have our very own Ride It Day. This April, you can buy a Ride It Day Rally Plate for just £10.00 and ride out with friends, or join an organised event, and once again help support vulnerable children and young people across the UK”

    Buy a motorbike/car rally plate with 100% of the profit going directly to support local children:

    Make a donation here to support Childline:

    Post a photograph of your bike/car, displaying your rally plate, to Facebook and Instagram using #Acecafechildline and we’ll pick a worthy winner who will receive a special gift from the Ace!

    Ace Cafe  patrons have always shown huge generosity over the years in respect of donating toys for children in hospital over the Christmas period, and we are sure this will  continue to be the case in 2021.

    As well as being grateful for anything that you’d like to donate for ages 3- 11, the toys always asked for are:

    LEGO sets
    Arts and crafts sets
    Barbies
    Spider-Man toys
    Cars and planes
    Please bring gifts unwrapped

    Because of allergies advice is against stuffed toys and sweets - the charity volunteer staff however may appreciate some sweet treats!

    On returning to the cafe, there will be prizes for the "Best Dressed Bike" and the "Best Dressed Rider" - and a hot cuppa

    NB: On the morning of the run, all elves, reindeer, Santa’s, snowmen and pixies etc. are asked to please check in at the cafe with “Toy Run Ron”, who once again is kindly looking after the logistics involved with this special occasion.

    Later the same day, Sunday 19th December at 7pm, why not join us for the cafe's annual candlelit Christmas Carol Service!
