    I know Amy and her mum so im sure this will be ok for me to post and it is awareness for her quest not to take anything away from Chelsea.

    Goes to show what impact a free local paper in your area can do and it also shows that you can fund raise for one person as a registered charity but belive me the paper work is off putting but worth it in the end.
    good luck

    thanks for that, will try and email them, as the person who told me seemed pretty sure this was the case. the family were also told lots of red tap and government take some off you aswell. I really don't know as its all new, but will see if they can offer some advice, thanks again

    just wanted to say that the cakes are in the oven.

    I really hope that your event goes well. I'm sorry I won't be able to make it but I know that I will be thinking of you.
    Good Luck

    EVERYWHERE.

    BUT LETS JUST SAY IN YOUR LAST POST ASKING WHERE TO PUT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD START.:cool:

    There is a local board near the bottom of the options too
    and why not start a new advert or help page
    good luck

            this is just the England /Scot ?NI and Welsh but putting a "fundraising in Wellingborough" would do just the jobbie. God luck with all the fundraising hope it goes well and sometimes awareness can be just as good in the first stages of raising dosh for Chelsea. Best Wishes Greenface
