A big thank you
The two receptionists here at Shoreham Airport, have for the past few months been running a second-hand stall in the foyer. They have to date collected £300 for Help for Heroes, £300 for Hounds for Heroes and yesterday presented the RAF Association (Shoreham Branch) with the sum of £350.00. They would like to thank everyone who has contributed items to date and ask that you continue to do so!!
They are now collecting for the RAF Benevolent Fund and require books, DVDs, CDs, games, jigsaw puzzles and similar items to sell for this worthy cause. Anyone wishing to contribute can just bring them to the reception desk or contact them on 01273 467375. All donations will be much appreciated.
