Strike Force Fundraising Update! Number 1!

Hiya!

Today I would like to take a moment to appreciate the people who have helped fundraise/donate to the fund. If you don't know already, I play powerchair football for Aspire PFC. I play Regional, National and soon European football for Aspire. In October I will be playing in the Champions League in Denmark which is an incredible honour, however I need a new powerchair called the Strike Force so I can take part on a level playing field. I love powerchair football, its my life, so this chair is desperately needed not just for Europe but also for the upcoming season.


The chair costs a whopping £6,500, however with UK referendum on Europe, the pound to the dollar has dropped from £1 - $1.50  to £1 - $1.36 (this means the pound is becoming weaker) which changes the price to about £7,200. This means more fundraising will have to be done.

Over the past month, many fundraising activities have been planned and completed. I made a GoFundMe page which has generated £2,125- donations from complete strangers, which is amazing! My Grandmother lives on an OAP court and she decided to have many fundraising activities such as sports day, raffles and bingo. This raised a total of £1241.50! Therefore I have £3366.50. We currently have a money collection point at The Green Dragon Pub in Wymondham and are waiting to hear how much they have raised.


We have planned a night of mediumship, which is where you'll receive messages from the dead. On Friday 8th April, 7-11PM at Spixworth Village Hall. Tickets are £10 per person. If you'd like to buy a ticket please message me on Twitter, Facebook or Snapchat.


If anyone could help I would be most grateful! To pull on an England shirt with the 3 lions on my chest is my dream! Thank you to everyone who has donated/fundraised already I'm extremely grateful!

Love ya! Xxx
