The raffle which precedes our monthly lecture meetings continues to be popular. However we need your help – in order to have prizes each month which will encourage everyone to buy lots of tickets, we need to source some attractive items. If you are able to donate something that would make a nice raffle prize please would you bring it along to our next meeting in September or any subsequent meeting. If there are more than five or six items donated, we will keep back some of them until the next meeting.

Our raffle organisers are both currently unable to attend our monthly meetings through circumstances beyond their control. We are therefore looking for one or two people to take on this role which will involve acquiring and storing raffle prizes and bringing five or six to each of our monthly meetings, arriving early enough to sell tickets to people coming to the lecture meetings and folding up tickets for the draw. If you feel you could help us with this task please get in touch with Roy or Jane.

Funds raised by the raffle help us to continue to provide an attractive programme for members of the Group at our current low subscription level.

Thanks for your help.
