We are delighted to have given now a second donation of £3,000 to the Hospice.
We thank our Members Chris Wilde and Tom Heyes for all their work to the Birmingham Hospice.
On Friday 22nd September, we were delighted to have had a visit from the Birmingham Hospice, (Formally John Taylor Hospice), with their attendance here, Roisin Mooney and Esme LLoyd Kelly. They were delighted with the cheque for Three Thousand Pound.
We are delighted with Chris and Tom for their work on this second donation following the work from Paul Jennings and Tom's earlier help on our first donation.
Please look at the Photo on the entry of the Club Lounge.
All our Members are familiar with our club's relationship with The John Taylor Hospice. We have won their Annual year award in the past and still have the award shield on our Bar in our honour.
Our continued effort, led by Paul Jennings initially has again provided the JT Hospice with a recent cumulative amount of £1,185. Paul has been joined by several of our Members along the way, Tom Heyes and Chris Wilde to name two involved in our Function evenings helping along the way. On Saturday 5th March 2022 Tom and Andrew Heyes made another donation to the Hospice from their evening show for which we are all delighted. Our liaison with the John Taylor Hospice will continue.

Thanks to you ALL.
We want to say a huge thank you to our supporters for their generous donations.
No matter how much you give, big or small, every pound will mean someone across Birmingham and Sandwell can receive the care and support they need.
Without your kindness we couldn't continue to do this.
