Subject: To all Lincolnshire Folk Clubs
I am wondering if any of you Lincolnshire Folk Clubs would like to partake in a joint appeal, called "GOLD Appeal".
This is run by Radio Lincolnshire and supported by Jeremy Spake.
It is one of most heart rendering appeals that anyone could support.
My thoughts were that each club could collect money from attendees at each folk session over a month, and then, we could all go to Radio Lincolnshire and hand the money over.

I don't want to get into long arguments about this. I just want to know how many clubs would be willing to do this.

Here is the info

Jeremy Spake, the star of BBC 1's "Airport" has been back in Lincolnshire to help with this year's BBC Radio Lincolnshire GOLD Appeal.
Jeremy launched the appeal this year which is all about making a dream come true for seriously or terminally ill children in the county.
We hope to raise enough money to take the children on a special flight to Lapland to meet the real Father Christmas in December.

Working alongside the "Wish upon a Star" charity Radio Lincolnshire are trying to provide this unique experience for as many of these courageous children as possible.

Jeremy is patron of Wish Upon a Star and is keen to lend his support to this year's GOLD Appeal.
