With reference to the letter last week from Chris Byrne-Jones...

Our Committee is absolutely thrilled about his most generous offer.

Chris is one of our vice-presidents and has been a great help to us over the six years we have been in existence. Seaton Phoenix is a registered charity (No. 1109752) and has a very small, hard-working committee.

We welcome new members and Chris has asked that he keep a supply of application forms in his shop.

We hold regular events and, as a purely local charity, all money raised is spent locally.

From 2005 till March, 2009 we donated the tremendous sum of �10,861.87, all raised by a small cohort of helpers.

Our AGM will be held on June 4, when the 2009/10 figure will be available.

Our thanks must go to all those generous people of Seaton.

Barbara Dearden-Potter

Secretary
