Alzheimer’s Society – Volunteer Fundraising Group

Radyr and Morganstown Alzheimer’s Society Volunteer Fundraising Group is a local group, raising money for the Alzheimer’s Society in Wales.

The Group  is delighted to be the Radyr and Morganstown Festival Charity for 2024, raising over £5,000 this year so far.

To date, the group has raised over £70,000 for the charity through donations and support for events.

If you are having a clear-out we are continuing to collect items of costume, gold or silver jewellery (even broken chains or single earrings are acceptable). Just post them in an envelope through the door of Gaynor at 5 Bryn Coed or Pat at 25 Drovers Way.

We have again been chosen as a Co-op charity for 2024, as part of their local community fund. In the past 12 months we’ve raised a grand total of £3,281 through the generosity of Co-op members choosing us as their local charity.

You can continue to support us through your Co-op membership – please select us as your charity of choice at https://membership.coop.co.uk/causes/81326

We look forward to seeing supporters again at our stall at the Christmas tree lighting evening in December.

Our next event is a Beetle Drive on Saturday 30th November 2024 at the Old Church Rooms. If you are not familiar with a Beetle Drive, this is a fun game for all the family, combining old-fashioned pencil and paper, dice, teams and a little artistic flair!  The event will include a bar and light food.

We are always keen to welcome new members for the Committee. If you would like to join us, please contact Mark on 07713684088 for an informal chat.

You can also support Alzheimer’s Society through selecting the charity as your preferred charity partner when you shop with Amazon.  Go to http://smile.amazon.co.uk in order to do this.  Amazon will donate for every purchase.

Please contact Tracey Stanley for more information about upcoming events and regular meetings. We are always looking for new members who would like to get involved in organising fundraising events in the area.
