NUKE THE LEUK

At the risk of repeating myself, but
it is for a jolly good cause. Come on, there only needs to be 50 of us…..
CAN YOU HELP NTL EARN £5000?
The Lotus 7 Club
is being given the opportunity to earn up to £5000 for NtL.
Club member Norman Verona, is on the committee of the South Yorkshire Police
"Blue Light Show" taking in place in Barnsley and is asking the club to provide
people to run the gates/car parks and the food hall.
If we can provide around 50 people for Sunday 25th July 2004 then NtL will get
the profits from the food and the first £2000 taken on the gates & car parks.
There would also be an area at the show for the Club and a local team is
required to host this on behalf of the club.
The 2003 show attracted 15,000 members of the public, volunteers
need only turn up, get a 10 minute briefing and work under the supervision of
the management team. Norman is intending to arrange onsite camping on the
Saturday night for those from afar and a BBQ for all volunteers. For the hooded
and windscreened volunteers no doubt B&B can be arranged!
It's a great way to give the Club's efforts for Ntl a
big shot in the arm and a great opportunity to get involved in a worthy cause
and of course display your car.
Volunteers please contact Norman on 0870 735 0010 / email: norman@dmservices.co.uk
or myself on the contacts below. We would appreciate an early response if
possible as there is much planning to carry out before the event, not least any
contingency plans if insufficient numbers come forward.

It's an amazing
amount of donations that come from the goodwill between club members offering
help, advice, parts and assistance to each other from a huge wealth of
experience and knowledge. A benefit that is totally unexpected when filling out
a club membership form and then getting involved. Maybe we should have a warning
on the form to the effect that membership to the Lotus 7 Club of GB is likely to
change your life - forever! All for the love of these funny wee beasties eh!
..oo00oo..
Under Gift Aid LRF can claim tax back on any donation, large or small, providing you are a UK taxpayer. This means that at
no cost to you they are able to claim back 28p for every £1 you give providing you pay income tax or capital gains tax to cover the amount they reclaim.
If you pay tax at a higher rate, you can claim further tax relief on your Self Assessment tax return.
LRF promise "If you wish, we guarantee not to use your details for any other purpose other than to reclaim tax on your donation. We won't pass them on to anyone else, send you newsletters or appeal letters - you won't hear from us again unless you want to. By agreeing to allow us to gift aid your donation, you'll be helping to increase it by nearly a third, without any extra cost to yourself, and with our low running costs, this will go straight into research. Thanks."
