The club holds an annual fundraising event each year and we are always on the look out for new and exciting fundraising ideas. In addition, we have a Monthly Draw account for over 18s which costs £12 per person. A key part of our fundraising is to fund the Youth/Disability Project, more information of which can be found on our Youth/Disability project page.
