An afternoon at The Bull

Mark “Bomber” organised the whole thing and ran it himself — karaoke from the afternoon into the evening, bingo, a raffle and an auction, in the beer garden at The Bull in Poulton.

It raised £1,018.00 for us in one sitting. Every prize and voucher in the raffle was donated by local businesses and by members of the public who simply turned up with something to give.

Among the prizes was a paintballing session for ten people, donated by Delta Force Paintball — the sort of thing nobody expects to see on a raffle table in a beer garden.

That money goes where all of it goes: anti-bullying resources for schools across the Fylde coast, the first aid and CPR training we run, and the counselling we provide free of charge.

Thank you to Bomber, to everyone who sang, bought a ticket or bid on something, and to The Bull for having us.
