The Treasurer (who else) has initiated two fundraising exercises for the Society and we need your help to raise the funds required to fully restore our Kitson locomotive:
Easyfunding - This method of fundraising rewards the Society for online purchases at any one of several thousand online retailers. There is NO CHARGE to any of the subscribers.
47 Club quarterly prize draw.
Following a larger than expected quote for the restoration of the boiler on the Kitson, the Society has signed up with Easyfunding to raise further funds. There over 7,000 companies who will pay a percentage of whatever you spend with them.
It's easy to sign up and doesn't cost you anything!
The Hon Treasurer has already used it to raise money through Booking.com, Compare the Market and Sainsbury's.
Give it a try, and let's get the Kitson back in steam!
