Earlier in the year, we set ourselves a target to raise £1500 through our Easyfundraising initiative to go towards the upgrade of our floodlights. The great news is that we have smashed through that target with our Easyfundraising total now at just over £2000.

On behalf of everyone at the club, we'd like to say a massive thanks to our members who have taken the time to sign up and have generated these donations. All from an initiative that is simple to set up and costs the club and our members nothing. There really is no catch!

By signing up with Easyfundraising, every time you make an online purchase, the retailer will make a free donation to the club. There is no extra cost to the shopper and the majority of online retailers are part of the initiative.

Although a great total has been raised so far, it is from a relatively small number of registered members so we'd like to encourage as many people as possible to sign up. The process to sign up is very easy. Simply visit the following page on the website and follow the instructions:

We'd also like to use this opportunity to launch our next target which is to raise a further £2000 by the Spring to invest in improving our outdoor facilities around the downstairs bar and catering area. Examples of improvements may include outdoor furniture, patio heaters, storage etc.

With the online Christmas shopping period upon us, it is the perfect time to get behind this new initiative and see some tangible improvements to our outdoor facilities in place before the end of the season!

In short, every penny that is spend online without being part of an initiative like Easyfundraising means that a good cause is missing out of a free donation. Please take a few moments to sign up and lets smash our new target together!

Thanks again to those who have signed up so far to generate donations and we look forward to having more members on board soon.
