Supporting the Trust
Do you have something we need?
PDF Documents are used throughout this site. Click here to get Adobe Reader to be able to view these documents.
Rather than (or as well as) giving the Trust financial aid, you may be able to contribute by giving us something we need. Some of the items are quite small and you may have them lying around at home doing nothing. Others might be a bit more of a challenge to find. You will notice that the list changes from time to time as people give us things and as we add new items.
In past years we have been given such diverse items: from a caravan to use at County Shows to a set of office desks; from a microwave to heat up our meals to a shovel - not to mention things that help us to raise money for our grand draw and the odd raffle prize now and again, so please read through our list and see if you can help.
