£700 raised for charity by fundraisers at Burnham’s Ritz Club

Hundreds of pounds has been donated to charity following two successful fundraising events organised by Burnham-On-Sea Ritz Club.

A cheque for £706 was this week handed over to cancer charity Tenovus after the club’s craft fair and beach fun day.

The sun shone for the fun day, which included rounders for members and guests, a barbecue and live music from local band Snag and friends.

The club’s annual Arts and Crafts Fair helped to generate further cash, with a raffle, tombola and auction of produce all being well supported. A competition to guess how many pickled onions were in a jar generated £54 alone!

Our picture shows Paul Davis, Club Chairman, with David Foulds, Vice Chairman, presenting the cheque to Monica Sluman, Manager of Burnham-On-Sea’s Tenovus charity shop.

For enquiries about future Ritz Club events or club membership drop in to the club or telephone 01278 785365.
