Well we may not have been blogging for a while but we have certainly
been busy at Churchill HQ, continuing to raise money for our Churchill Charity
Challenge. With all proceeds going to the Dougie Mac, the support we have been
given continues to amaze us all and we cannot thank you enough for your
efforts.
Last week also saw another successful ware sale in the factory
where employees here at Churchill made donations and managed to
raise £288.92.
This in addition to last weeks summer BBQ which was a sizzling success
- With the sun shining over Churchill, our hotdogs and burgers went down a
treat and were enjoyed by all! Evans & Sons butchers & Lorna in
the canteen very generously donated all of the food for this event and we managed
to raise £200!!
Back by popular demand, we also had the toast service last week!
The accounts team very kindly volunteered to run the Toast Service again, with
a special treat on the friday of cheesey oatcakes - thank you to Elizabeth
and her band of helpers for organising this and helping to raise an amazing £82.54
We have several events coming up - volunteers &
participants are as always needed.
On Sunday 15th September between 8.00am - 1.00pm we will be holding a car boot sale on
site. It will be £5 per car with the full amount being donated to Dougie Mac, this could be the opportunity you need to clear out the loft or shed & make some
money for yourselves, or just come along and see if you can grab yourself a
bargain!
Other upcoming events include our Churchill trip to Blackpool . This has been a huge success and
tickets to this have now SOLD OUT!!! Special thanks must go to Jeannie who has
arranged this trip!
Ross Jones will be running the Bristol Half Marathon on 15th
September, he has already got £190 sponsorship and has promised that if we can
get him up to £200 he will do a 2nd half marathon. Je only needs a further £10
so if you wish to see Ross go through the agony of 2 half marathons then please
lets get him up to at least £200 and visit his just giving page - http://www.justgiving.com/Ross-Jones1

Festival 4-6th October if anyone would like to help please do get in touch!
