Phil (the Bag) has had some issues – he forgot our bags – the date will be re-scheduled, check out Facebook and the website for updates
Do you know a Lawyer?
We plan to use a lawyer to support us in our commitments and contracts that we will soon embark on. Some we are required to pay for, but there is some lawyer / solicitor work that may best be done by a volunteer. It all saves money.
Do you know anyone who might be willing to offer a few hours help in late March / Early April? Please ask them and put them in touch with Dave Kesby 07932 121446 / 01962 620351

Could your company help us?
We have been promised money or help from Howdens, Premier Inns and Amey. Companies are keen to help local causes especially if we can help with publicity for them (which we can). Please consider whether your company or contacts of your company could help us in any way. There’s no harm in asking! If you need any more information before approaching a company contact Fiona.harwood@talktalk.net. Please don’t delay – we are making our final planning decision in April and any additional money will help us immensely.

Help Make it happen!
We need two key volunteers – could one of them be you?
FUNDRAISING: Can you spare three hours per week to help write fundraising bids? There are loads of opportunities to apply for funds but we need some help, otherwise we will start to miss out on money. Please contact either Dave Kesby (david@kesbyco.com) or Fiona Harwood (Fiona.harwood@talktalk.net).
EVENT MANAGEMENT: There is a BIG sponsored fundraising event planned for July. We need someone to organise it! This is going to be a really fun event with lots of logistics to sort out. You will, of course, have support from the rest of the team. Please contact Dave Kesby (david@kesbyco.com).
Its not just about you giving your money.
We don’t just want to keep asking you for money. Fiona Harwood is working hard to attract money from grants and also companies. Unfortunately we have just been unsuccessful on a bid to pay for the roofing, but there is plenty more to go at.
Do you think your company would want to donate to this local cause? Or match any fundraising that you do, making your donation work even harder? If so PLEASE get in touch with Fiona on fiona.harwood@talktalk.net.
** If anyone has any spare time (probably about 3 hours a week) to help Fiona with the fundraising from companies and trusts she would REALLY like to hear from you! Absolutely no previous experience or knowledge of fundraising is required.
