MAY FUNDRAISER

A Grand Day Out Raffle

Tickets on sale now, with 13 prizes to many local and national tourist attractions, well worth a quid of anyones money for a strip. (of tickets that is!)

APRIL FUNDRAISER

As part of HELP THE AGED's Big Spring Walk weekend I am hosting a sponsored walk on Sunday 27th April. 

The walk made nearly £200, mainly through people paying not to come on it!!  Stanley Wiltshire was a little star, not only the youngest walker, but he also collected £50 sponsorship.

We managed to lose Joe's dad, who after 3 pints fell asleep in a gateway on the way back!!

FEBRUARY / MARCH FUNDRAISERS

My Easter Hamper has raised £150!!

On easter saturday you may have spotted a lamb, chicken and bunny stoo in the snow outside Help the Aged in Belper.  We raised £67.05p in two hours!

Guess the name of the bear was won by Joanne Ryan.  The bear was named RYAN.

The every penny counts appeal. Thanks to Pottery primary school, 3-5 preschool and 1st Openwoodgate Brownies for collecting loose change from their parents for the appeal. Also thanks to the PSA for donating half their raffle money to Help the Aged.

Pottery School raised £13.80          3-5 Preschool raised £21.10

1st Openwoodgate Brownies raised £6.37

TREK INDIA 2008       What is it?

In October I will be travelling to India with a group organised by Help the Aged, I will visit their project in Delhi and spend five days hiking and camping in the Himalayas. But first I need to raise lots of money and do lots of training!

Through this site I hope to collect over £3,000 for HELP THE AGED. All donations must be passed on to the charity before 8th August 2008, 10 weeks before the trip takes place.

I have loads of fundraising ideas up my sleeve and hope with the support of all my friends and family ,(THATS YOU!), to raise the £3,000 plus much, much more!!

Just 48p can help, as this pays for a Mobile Medicare Unit treatment. Help the Aged also support older people who are caring for family with HIV/AIDS.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Help the Aged will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.


Every penny counts and goes towards a good cause.

A big THANK YOU for your support.

Abi.
