New initiatives:

Norman Verona has just been informed that the Blue Light Show is taking place this year and asks:

“Can I please have volunteers for Sunday 31st JULY 2005. Volunteers who come on the Saturday can help with light duties in setting up* and join in the pre show party on the Saturday night. Camping, food and showers are provided as last year. I'll organise a band and beer for Saturday night

As I will effectively be running the show I will need even more people than last year in order to break our £8300 benchmark. We need 80 volunteers in total this year (we had 60 last year). That means about 65 from the club. You can drag any friends / relations along if you want

Can I therefore ask volunteers to please email lynne@dmservices.co.uk

*Most of the heavy work will be done by me and the mounted section during the week before the show. I will be setting up the lightweight stuff on the Friday and Saturday.”

Energetic volunteers required across the UK throughout 2005 to assist LRF with their cycling, marathon and triathlon efforts. Last year the Banana Army raised over a £1 million for research so if any of the runners and cyclists in the 7 Club are interested please drop me an email for an events/contacts diary.

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!

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."
