Earlier in the summer, I was invited to take our cheque for the Poppy Appeal to a special poppy fundraisers’ event in Kent. Freddy and Chris, who did a huge amount to make our screenings a success, also joined me for this special occasion.
We handed over a cheque for £575 for the Poppy Appeal to Clare Saunders, the Kent fundraising manager for the Royal British Legion and we’re keen to continue supporting them in the future.
At the additional screening of Blitz & Bananas in July at Darrick Wood Hall we raised more funds for charity, part of which went to support the work of the Biggin Hill RAF Heritage Centre. I recently presented a cheque for £100 for this project to Ced Verdon. Ced was also a huge asset on our Blitz & Bananas team – as our vintage car co-ordinator.
C.£1,100 has been raised in total for various charities and we’re continuting to raise funds through the sale of the DVD and through future events.
Thank you so much to everyone for their support.
