Lookaround December 2011

Just Giving by mobile phone

Recognising that every little helps the Fundraising Subcommittee has been exploring a variety of ways to generate income for the Redevelopment Project.

Some mobile telephone providers offer schemes by which mobile phone users can donate a small percentage of the value of their mobile phone calls to a nominated charity. We have registered the Sedbergh People’s Hall with four providers: Cellnet, Orange, O2 and Vodaphone.

From 1 December 2011 anyone who wishes to select the People’s Hall as the nominated charity can do so by going to the relevant providers’ website. Then from the charge made for each call a very small donation will go to the People’s Hall. This donation will be made within the user’s call contract and some contracts may not allow it, eg: from free calls. From time to time the mobile phone provider will make a transfer to the People’s Hall bank account.

There is no cost at all to the eligible phone user, but it does help the People’s Hall fundraising efforts. Give it a whirl – we will report progress in due time.

The Holly and the Ivy is a Touring Highlights music and song event with songs, dances, tunes, stories, rituals and customs. We thought it an appropriate event for the Christmas season.
