Raffle Prize request in aid of Club 2000 Sport and Leisure
I volunteer for Club 2000 Sport and Leisure. I am also on the committee.
Club 2000 is a sport and leisure club for people with disabilities, including learning difficulties, who live in Telford and Wrekin. Club 2000 is totally independent and not part of the local authority and receives no funding from them or any other statutory organisation. Club is run entirely by volunteers and supported by membership subscriptions and any money that members and volunteers can raise by their own efforts together with any donations. We meet weekly, except during the summer holiday.
I started volunteering with Club 2000 in August 2010. It was a 16 week program. Over 5 years later and they can’t get rid of me. I enjoy club 2000 and its members. I also give my time to drive the minibus so members can attend and look after the website.
Our website is http://www.club2000sportandleisure.co.uk/ Our registered Charity No. is 1077511
Every year we offer our members trips. This year they wanted to go to Chester Zoo, Cadbury World, Blist Hill and Drayton Manor as they thoroughly enjoy themselves. There’s something to do for each and every one of them.
We are holding an entertainment event on 18th February 2017 in the hope of raising money for Club 2000. You could either purchase a ticket to attend or donate a raffle prize.
Should you wish to donate a raffle prize be it large or small, please let me know by email. We will ensure your company name is attributed to the Club 2000 newsletter and website. We understand you may receive many requests and fully understand if you are unable to give on this occasion.

5 Tips to Ensure You Hire Competent Contractors
When it comes to health and safety, never take any chances – only allow competent contractors to undertake work on your premises.

It is vital that your workers are aware of the risks posed by looking at mobile phones or other devices when driving as part of their work activities – give them the necessary training today.

Your phone buzzes to life while you’re driving along – what do you do? Ignore it, or have a sneaky look?
We all know that it’s illegal (not to mention extremely dangerous) to use your mobile phone while driving. Yet our latest research reveals that many motorists just aren’t getting the message…
Next time you’re tempted to reach for your phone while driving, remember the following. Here in the UK, it’s been illegal to ride a motorcycle or drive using hand-held phones since December 2003.
There are just two very specific exceptions to the law: if you need to call 999 or 112 in an emergency and its unsafe or impractical for you to stop, or if your car is safely parked.
You can, of course, legally use a hands-free phone. But if the police believe you’re distracted and not in control of your vehicle because of your using it, you could still get stopped and be penalised.
So, if in doubt, it’s best to banish your mobile phone to your glove compartment entirely until your journey’s over.
The new legislation in brief
New legislation is due in the UK in the first half of 2017, which will raise the points received from using mobile phones whilst driving to 6 points, instead of the previous 3-point penalty. On the spot fines, will also be increased from £100 to £200.
This is part of an ongoing initiative to crack down on dangerous driving due to people using their phones. This initiative will be supported by a new high profile Think! campaign backed by the government, which hope to raise awareness around the dangers caused by this behaviour.
