This year, we're excited to announce that the Rugby Club Junior Section will be one of the beneficiaries of the annual Charity Collection during the Bonfire Procession. To ensure we can make a significant impact on local causes, we need your help!

Become a Tin Shaker!

We're looking for volunteers aged 16 or over to join our team of tin shakers. Your enthusiasm and dedication will help us raise funds for worthy charities in our community including our own rugby club.

How to Volunteer:

Report to the Collection Van: Meet Trudy, our Captain of Boxes, at the Cypress Road car park by 7 PM on the night of the procession.
Receive Instructions: Learn about the collection route and receive your collection tin.
Join the Procession: Walk alongside the procession, shaking your tin and collecting donations.

Important Notes:

Please wear comfortable clothing and sturdy footwear, as you'll be walking in the dark.
Remember, you're collecting for all the charities benefiting from the procession, not just the Rugby Club Junior Section.

Let's work together to make a positive difference in our community!
