Funding/Fundraising
Financial Statement 1st August 2014 - 24th July 2015
Subscriptions and Fees
There is no membership subscription to anyone joining the Group: admission to each regular fortnightly meeting is free. Outings and other events may attract a charge, which will reflect the actual cash costs of the event. Occasional meetings may be held which are open to non-members, and there may be a charge to non-members attending such an event.
Fundraising
The Group will hold occasional fundraising events, and welcomes donations and raffle prizes from the community, local and national organisations, and those willing to help with the cost of offering relevant services.
Grants
The Group will apply to relevant bodies each year for grants to help cover actual costs, such as room rental, printing, publicity, speakers, visual aids, services, transport, etc.

The Group’s application for a grant of £500 from the Macmillan Cancer Support ‘Supporting You to Help Others’ programme has been approved. A Grant Report will be completed and returned to Macmillan by the end of 2015, confirming the fact that the grant has been used to help cover the 2014-2015 costs of room rental and printing.

During the past year, then President, Rita Rogers, with club members, raised several hundred pounds for local charities, and suggested that The Ludlow Cancer Support Group be one of three beneficiaries. (The other two were Hope House and Help for Heroes).
This was agreed and we were delighted to receive a cheque for £112.00 from Burway Bowling Club. The Club meets throughout the year, playing bowls in summer and skittles in winter. The Club caters for all age groups, and new members are welcome.
