2024/25 Charity

Hi Members,

At our first committee meeting for season 2024 / 2025 under the Chairmanship of Kevin Showler we have decided to support a Charity on four designated Rallies. Angela proposed to support

M.N.D. ( Motor Neurone Disease ) as she cruelly lost her Cousin this year & we would like to do as much as we can , knowing at first hand what people and their families go through.

The Committee decided any monies raised from Ambleside Holiday Rally, The Chairmans Rally at Oakleaf Sports Centre, The Horticultural Rally at Crimdon & The Bedale Holiday Rally in September will be the designated Rallies.

Any member wishing to help in any way by donating Raffle / Tombola prizes please contact Ang & Barry or any committee member .

Another idea would be for the crocheting / knitting girls to make something to be made available for prizes or auction.

Ang & myself are starting the hobby of making Scented Candles, hoping to sell them, all monies going towards the Charity. Another way would be to donate any unwanted gifts.

I’m sure we can do very well for this Charity and have some along the way.

Thank You

Ang & Barry
