Needham Red Lion - Fundraising

NEEDHAM RED LION

The Coffee mornings held on the first Tuesday of the month continue to be a great success.  We have helped many charities since starting over two years ago.  All proceeds from the coffee mornings will now be going to All Hallows Hospice.

ALL HALLOWS HOSPICE…..

…. is located in Ditchingham in the beautiful Waveney Valley.  It provides professional medical care for both rehabilitation and long term needs.  Priority is given to residents of Norfolk and Suffolk.  The setting, in four acres of grounds including a sensory garden where patients can do the gardening themselves, provides peace that both patients and their relatives can enjoy.
The Trust receives money from surrounding healthcare providers for the care they provide but not for equipment such as beds, mattresses and specialist lifting equipment.  For this the Trust relies heavily on the generosity of local people.  In these times of austerity it is even more vital to support All Hallows in order that they can provide the very best care for patients.

FUNDRAISING

There are two dates for your diaries - 9 July and 7 August 
On 9 July there will be a sponsored sky dive by two Red Lion volunteers, Lewis Williams and Lewis Robinson.  The jump will take place at Ellough Airport, Beccles at 9am, weather permitting.  Please come and support these two young boys and then afterwards come on to the Red Lion and join them for a brunch.  Proceeds of the jump and the brunch will go to the All Hallows Appeal.
On August 7 at 3pm there will be a Beach Party at the Red Lion.  Everyone is welcome to enjoy the beach and the food - paella and jambalay as well as a BBQ. To add to the fun there will be a sandcastle competition - two classes (children & adult). You will also be entertained by a Brass Band! This will be followed by an Auction of Promises.  Again, proceeds of the Day at the Beach will go towards funding new equipment for All Hallows.
Please come along and have fun whilst supporting this very important charity.
