Join our 100 Club lottery and help raise funds for the pub

Would you like to support our Community pub, the local community and have the chance to win big ?

Sign up for our 100 Club, a lottery designed to raise funds while giving you a shot at some fantastic cash prizes. 

Membership is £30 per number per year joining in March, which covers 13 draws - as we’ll have two in December.  It’s open to all and you can join at any part of the year, for £2.50 less each month, so November is £10 to join, December £7.50 and January £5.00 and Feb £2.50!

The first draw took place during the Coffee Morning at the pub on Thursday, March 27th, and since then there has been further draws every month There will be three cash prizes won every month except December when there are 2 draws so 6 cash prizes!

The more people that buy a ball, the higher the cash prizes—and the more funds we raise to help the community and improve the pub.

Funds raised so far have helped to improve soundproofing at the pub and enable us to continue supporting local causes in the community. We are hoping to contribute some funds towards solar panels, making our pub more sustainable.

Volunteers are critical to the success of the pub. Their assistance in everything from working front of house in the bar area, gardening, building maintenance, marketing, or being on the committee, is so valuable.

Do you have a few hours to spare? Would you enjoy the companionship of working within teams and getting to know people in the community? Do you have specific expertise or experience that could be applicable to helping run the pub (DIY, Gardening, Marketing, Admin, Accounts, Decorating, Cleaning, Events etc)?
