2019/2020 Fundraising Events
PAST EVENTS
Annual Wessex CCLL Concert 2020 … Online
This concert was launched in early July and raised a total of £2,000 which was used to help the community near Pinsk where "our" children have been coming here from. The Codvid-19 pandemic continues to be a serious problem in Belarus because there are little or no resources provided to help in hospitals, schools, orphanages etc. Through CCLL contacts we have been able to support the community with PPE items including face masks, protective clothing, hand sanitising stations and washing facilities.
Silent Auction (November 2019)
Our Silent Auction was launched on Sunday 3rd November. It raised nearly £1,000. It was a good start towards our target of £8,000 for this year so that we can bring another group of around 16 children over in July 2020. Thank you to Sue and Ali for their work in organising it all!
Annual Quiz (February 2020)
We had 11 teams competing this year with around 100 taking part. It toom place at Broadstone Junction Leisure Centre again in their function room. Thanks to John Billington for his masterful quizmaster duties and to Sue, Tim and Julia for their help with setting up and running the event. The amount raised was about £650 which is another two air fares and visas for our July 2020 group!
