Fundraising
While most of the time spent in Poynton & District Round Table is about having fun, trying new events and socialising, we do undertake a couple of activities which raise money for us to donate in the local community to charities, organisation, groups and good causes. It is our way for a group of blokes down the pub to put something back in to the local community.
Our two fundraising events are: Poynton's Annual Bonfire Every November we put on the Poynton Bonfire & Fireworks extravaganza at Poynton Park. This is a large organised bonfire and professional Fireworks Display for the local community. We believe it is the finest Bonfire and Fireworks event in North Cheshire and South Manchester. It takes a fair bit of planning, but we have a good time organising it (normally down the pub), and come the actual day it is serious time but is still a great fun day. For more details on the event visit www.PoyntonBonfire.co.uk The money raised by the Poynton Bonfire is then subsequently donated to local charities, organisations, groups and good causes.
Poynton Santa Rounds Every year we bring Father Christmas to Poynton to meet the kids. During December we tour Santa around Poynton in the custom built road going Sleigh. Whilst Santa is meeting the local children and taking note of their Christmas lists, the guys from Poynton Round Table are collecting donations from the good people of Poynton. Again the money raised by the Santa Rounds is then subsequently donated to local charities, organisations, groups and good causes.
Online shopping You can also helps us raise money for local charities via your regular online shopping. Fundraising for us can be as easy as just doing your online shopping! We have collaborated with easyfundraising who will turn your everyday online shopping into free donations to Poynton Round Table and the local charities we support (at no cost to you). Just start your online shopping first at easyfundraising, then shop as normal. Retailers will then make a small donation to say “thank you”.
Thanks... With both of our fundraising events we are always helped by local groups and organisations, including Poynton 41 Club, Ladies Circle, Scouts, Guides, Lacrosse Club, Football Clubs, Cricket Clubs, Hockey Clubs, Air Cadets, Commodores, Schools, etc. If anyone else would like to help us on any of our fundraising events we'd be very interested in hearing from you - [email protected]
Requests for donations We are very focused on donating locally. The money is raised through the generosity of the local community supporting our fundraising events, so we like to donate as locally as possible. If you represent a charity, group, organisation or good cause in the local area, and you have a funding requirement we'd be interested in hearing from you. Send us the details of your charity, cause, group, or project, along with full contact details to [email protected]
