Successes
Charity Presentation Evening
On Saturday 8 March we
held a Charity presentation dinner/dance at The
Barnstaple Hotel. A cheque for £7,000 was
presented to Paul Travers, the Capital Appeals Manager of BIBIC
[The British Institute for Brain Injured Children]. This
amazing amount was the result of a hours of hard work by
comparatively few people during 2007. 
During the evening a draw was held in aid of Diabetes UK (South
West) the Branch’s charity for 2008. £142 was made – an
excellent start to our fundraising for 2008.
Paul Travers was delighted to accept such a generous
donation. In fact, our cheque was the first he’d received
towards the charity’s recently launched Capital Appeal. He
wished Foresters every success with their future endeavours and
hoped Diabetes UK’s cheque next year would be equally
substantial.
