Does NESF do any charity meets?

Be good if we could raise some money for charity's using out pride and joys.

NBO is a charity event mate.

Yea mate but that's multiple forums. I was just wondering if NESF done any of there own

Could be arranged i think. Cant see why not.

We did a show once down in South Shields and raised money for Stray Aid and a childs disability group.

Would be great if we could organise something for Cancer Research as that is something which has at some point or another touched/affected all our lives.

Any suggestions?

The show at Shields was held in Bents Park .. I know it was quite a headache to sort out though and required insuance etc to be in place.

It's so much red tape and public liability that seems to squash alot of good ideas.

As it happens Nic a friend of mine is doing the Iron Man Triathlon for a 5 year old boy who has acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The charity he is doing it for is called CLIC Sargent which is a charity for children & young people with cancer.

I would love to be involved in something to support a cancer charity as I am sure we all would.

I'd be up for cancer resurch as my gran just shoved two fingers in cancers face and told it to sling its fook bag... so I'd be up for that

Yes Mario .. CLIC Sargent do very good work with children going through cancer.

Dont think I'd survive a triathlon though .. prob not even one leg lol

Lol - Me neither Nic, only 1 good leg !!! I could drive one though

Would be great if we could organise some charity events just to hand over a cheque on behalf of NESF. Cancer research and alzhimers society are two charity's I would happily like to raise funds for. I'm not much of a organiser but it would be good if people could help out.

Mine too Dave .. but unfortunately it seems to be ravaging more and more peoples lives now .. seems alot more than it used to be .. or is that just me?

Yeah but would be able to raise more if the public were involved.

Men back sack and crack wax women get head shaved

I agree a lot more ppl suffer from it today but think that's more down to detection is a lot better these days

I was thinking more along the lines of using our subarus that stand out from other cars as a event for raising some funds

Lol wouldn't be the first time .. my hair was always short n spikey when I was younger

Could be or the effects all this processed food .. man made things are having on our lives.

Where could this event take place? Bare in mind people work stupid shifts like myself and would love a charity day.

I was hoping to have a bit of a collection at the Revolution meet.

I've applied for a cancer research fundraising pack and its on it way within the next couple of weeks. So if people could share any ideas for an event it would be much appreciated. It asked what my idea was so I put NESF (North East Subaru Forum) car run/gathering. Hope that's ok
