Last year’s Appeal has been difficult for all the reasons for which we
all know about. Also we lost 3 of our of team, Ernie Smeeth and Roy
Elliott, both of whom sadly died, also another had a Heart Attack.
But we did manage to raise
£1525.45p, up from €1,247. 24p the previous year
Which was excellent, considering people do not carry so much cash
now with the prevailing difficulties,
We are now looking for Poppy sellers!!
What’s involved?? !!
It requires you to stand out in Freezing, cold, wet weather with a bit
of sun thrown in, under a canopy for 2 or 3 hour periods from
1st November until 11th November,
Two to Three hour shifts of your choosing.
Although demanding, it is rewarding.
Phone 01 737 554189 to register an interest.
Thank you
