Our President Geoff Simmonds last night presented a cheque for £2,500 to Nicki Poole from Willen Hospice.

Nicki explained that £4.7 million was required each year to maintain all the services that the Hospice provide, that equates to £9 required per minute for every day of the year. She explained because of limited beds and an increase in our age population the Hospice has started a new initiative called‘Heart in the Community’, this allows individuals/patients to be visited and treated in their own homes without the need of them visiting the Hospice.

Christmas Lights Tombola

The Club spent a day in Newport Pagnell running their tombola which attracted a great deal of interest and resulted in a very generous donation to Willen Hospice.

Recently we held a BBQ in Olney at the Rugby Club. Ailsa’s Aim, an Olney charity, joined us at the event and we all enjoyed a sunny afternoon with excellent food as well as bar facilities kindly provided by the Rugby Club.
