Sorry I know this is not really the correct place for this but I thought you may all be able to help, My Lovely dad died a few weeks ago of Cancer and I am so angry about the state of cancer help that I want to hold a PINK PARTY in October to raise funds to help find cures but I need a hall to start with and hoped that any of you might know of a kind person who would donate the use of one or at least at a reduced cost, I am also looking for prizes that can be auctioned off or given out so again if any of you can help I would be so Grateful, again sorry to blog this here but I have no idea where to start, I want to help some how and this seems something I can do

You need to say where you are looking to hold the party.loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.0 -

my first feeling is do you have any estate community centres near you that might be happy to lend the hall for the cause?
the other thought I had is whether Croydon has a LETS, if so, someone who runs that might be able to point you in the right direction
Good luck:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
Try your local sports club, village hall or even a pub may help you. They may even let you have a percentage of the bar takings on the night.
Sell pink marshmallows dipped in a chocolate fountain,pink lemonade, pink iced cup cakes.
How about decorating with pink fabric bunting (really easy to make up just triangles on bias binding/ribbon) and decorate.
Play the bonus ball....sell a number for £1 or £2 (or anything you wish)..the winner receives half of the money collected and cancer charity receive the rest.
Write up on a pink piece of paper or decorate a white piece with pink crepe paper/pens etc.
How many sweeties in a jar.....you could always ask a local newsagent/sweet shop to donate these...use pink sweets
Sorry having to pop out now...if i can think of anything else i'll add to it later.0
