Every year, the club raises money for a charity proposed by a club member and voted for at the AGM. The proposer then supports the fundraising activities through the year.
2024 Charity: The Veronica Claxton Memorial Fund raising money for Young Lives vs. Cancer
The VCMF is a fund set up in memory of Veronica Claxton who left a huge hole in all our lives on December 8th 2008 when she lost her short battle with cancer aged just 50. Keeping her name alive and helping to support others was a real inspiration and fundraising began in mid 2009. As of September 2023 we have managed to raise over £350,000 for Young Lives vs. Cancer.
