April 2022
Hi followers! You might notice it's been a little quiet in here- between covid and dwindling membership, we are struggling to stay afloat.
We have a few activities going on in the background, but our key thing right now is focussed on MEMBERSHIP- visit our special new page to see more!
I also took a look back over 2021-22 and was amazing at how much we did do! Go and check it all out here, and below is a breakdown of the highlights.
In 2021 we donated to The Ark Trust for Project 73 and St Paul's Child Contact Centre as well as CF Dream Holidays, Brain Tumour Research, Cowshed, SightSavers and the Alexander Devine Trust. In addition we supported families in need via Social Services and the Rough Sleeper team. We helped the Gambia project buy a new water pump, collected over 50 bags of litter and collected over 400 pairs of spectacles to be donated to Sight Camps through Spek Trek. We also donated numerous Message In A Bottle packs to local surgeries.
Already in 2022 we have donated over £1,700 to a variety of causes including the Lions Ukraine Appeal, Spotlight UK and The Cowshed as well as distributing free Message In A Bottle packs to local residents, raising £238,53 for Marie Curie UK and sending off a further 200 pairs of spectacles for Spek Trek .
Not. Bad.
Especially when you bear in mind the covid situation as well as our own dwindling membership numbers. Well done to our incredible small team!
