Our Donations

    

 

  

Who gains from the money we raise?
Our emphasis is on local good causes, on young people in particular, and we encourage people who are likely to receive donations to come and help at the Feast. If they can't help they might send their own supporters, or, like the wonderful Chestnut Club for older people, to bake cakes we can sell at our tea and cake stall.

    Here's the list of organisations that received funds in 2009. We gave away £18,600 in all!
