  2. The Mayor of Brent’s Ace Walk!

    Together with a very limited number of guests under the 'rule of six' regulations, the Mayor of Brent’s annual guided charity fundraising walk took place this year on Sunday 18th April
     
    Kindly organised and hosted by the Willesden Local History Society and not just Camden 
    this Ace walk started at the Jubilee clock Harlesden and visited St Michael's Church, Willesden County Court, Harlesden Station (London to Birmingham railway), an old Electricity substation, the largest biscuit factory in Europe, Willesden manufacturing & WW2, the Grand Union canal, via the Paddington Limehouse “cut” that opened in 1820, the River Brent, and ended with cake and a cuppa’ at the Ace at Stonebridge!
     
    At this difficult, challenging and “socially distanced” time, the walk was filmed to raise funds for two locally based charities:

    Available now via Eventbrite booking, access with password to the Vimeo film of the walk is £5, and £10 gets you a special pack that includes, map, list of stops & context, poster and collage of still photos along the route, and a thank you from the Mayor.

  4. Ace Cafe London Supports Childline

    Posted on

    Carl Fogarty and Ace Cafe London invite all riders (and drivers!) to support Childline,

    Carl said:

    “It’s fantastic that The Ace Cafe are getting on board with this year’s Drive It Day, raising funds for Childline.
    I know how generous the Biking community is and I’m sure we can raise a great amount for the charity that I have supported for many years now.
    I’m looking forward to seeing everyone’s photos with their Rally Plates and picking out a winner!
    Hoping I can drop by in the Summer to say hi to Mark!”
     
    Ace Cafe London, along with Carl Fogarty, is supporting Childline on Sunday 25th April as part of the Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs’ Drive It Day 2021
     
    With motorcyclists from across the UK this year invited to join the thousands of other historic vehicle owners in fundraising for Childline by taking a ride (or drive) to show their support * we can make a difference that counts!
     
    The NSPCC’s Childline service has provided a life changing helpline for children over the past 35 years, and 2020 has seen a dramatic increase in calls from young people who are really struggling with their mental health and the prolonged lockdown. Every 25 seconds a call is made to Childline  - we can help them answer those calls by the following:
     

    •             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 both Carl Fogarty and the Ace!

     
    Let’s show that we care and do what we can to support Childline
     
    For information on Childline please visit NSPCC
    For information on Drive It Day please visit Drive It
     
    *NB within government guidelines
