STAMFORD PROGRAMME NOTES 24th September 2024

 

Dear Supporter

The annual charity event for the Dylan Cecil Charity took place last Sunday.  Most Poppies fans are familiar with this charity following the tragic loss of Dylan in 2012.  The charity was set up to provide holidays to people/families that have endured tough times be it financially, health reasons etc.  Full information about the charity can be found at dylancecilmemorialfund.co.uk.  The Trust has been a regular contributor to the fund by holding race nights and donating 50% of the funds raised to the charity.  We have not had a race night for a while and are looking to hold one in the New Year.  In the meantime, we have made a small donation of £150 towards the fund.  We all felt the pain of this loss back in 2012 and although life goes on, Dylan’s family still have to deal with that pain and the impact of this tragedy.

The Club has launched an easyfundraising scheme.  This is an easy way to help raise money for the Club.  As you know, the Trust has its own easyfundraising account which we have had for several years now.  We have 50 people using the account and have raised £1215 to date.  

All you need to do is go to www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/ketteringtownpoppiessupporterstrust and join for free.  Every time you shop online, go to easyfundraising first to find the site you want and start shopping.  After you’ve checked out, that retailer will make a donation to the Trust for no extra cost whatsoever!  It will work the same for the Club and those details can be found on the Club’s media outlets.  No matter which page you go to, ultimately the money raised will go to the Club in some way or another.

 

The WORKING TOGETHER boards continue to fill up.  Board No 1 is now full and can be seen on the far side of the ground above the fence near the dug outs.  Board No 2 is filling up too.   You can add your name by joining the Poppies Trust. POPPIES TRUST: MEMBERSHIP (ktfctrust30.blogspot.com); membership is £10, adding your name will be a further £10.  Life membership is £100.
