The new SCAN e-mail address - [email protected]
After much pre planning and advertising over many months we held an Auction ofPromises on Saturday 7 May. After waiting nervously to see whether anyone wasgoing to turn up, we could never have imagined how successful it was going to be. Itraised an amazing £3,230, after all expenses, including £470 in Gift Aid from ourfriends at HMRC!! This would not have been such a huge success were it not for :-
· all the volunteers who helped on the night, with particular thanks to our wonderfulauctioneer Clive Brain, who's voice managed to hold out all night, plus all thosewho helped before in delivering around 1000 flyers
· all the wonderfully generous Promises, both large and small that were given to theAuction by individuals and local businesses
· and last but not least the generous bidders on the night who dug very deep intotheir pockets.
A huge thank you to everyone
