About our Club
We are a small,
relatively new group.
Our members, male and female, come from the City of Oxford and
its outlying villages. We meet twice a month to plan our
activities, sometimes we have guest speakers and occasionally
hold social events.
Fund Raising
Our main fundraising
event is The Lord Mayor's Parade and Gala, held on the second
Bank holiday in May. At Easter we raffle large chocolate eggs in
local pubs and clubs. During the festive season, we take
our sleigh out-and-about and run Santa's Grotto in Templers
Square, on the four Sundays running up to Christmas.
As the Club grows, we
hope to organise other events.
Welfare Projects
We have undertaken a
number of Welfare projects. These
include:
Decorating the lounge
in a residential home for the elderly
organising an evening
of entertainment, including supper, for one hundred senior
citizens
D
istributing
Fox Boxes, Food Hampers to the old and lonely each Christmas
Supplying fire extinguishers for a family centre
Collecting unwanted spectacles to go to the Third World
Purchasing TACADE material for a local School
Plus making financial donations to local groups, charities and
individuals
