    Just spoke to Bob Ward from Basingstoke and I know it’s a long way off, but thought we would let you all know we have agreed to hold the 2008 UKAHFT Pre-season Charity shoot at Popham Woods, with all proceeds going to the Stoke Mandeville fund.
    It will be either in January, Feb or March.
    There will be a 30 or 40 shot course set to the UKAHFT format and as always scores goes towards qualifying for the 2008 Gathering.

    We will keep you all posted.

    But don’t forget there will be a bucket by the booking-in areas at the remaining UKAHFT Nationals shoots, so get that spare change in there!!!!

    I feel the project desperatly needs someway for people to send in donations.
    Perhaps similar to the airgun donation scheme but it needs a postal address for cheques as well.

    I have been publicising what you are doing and it's looking most likely to be a make over. I should like to change my efforts to one of publicising fund raising.

    Terry Geldof is doing a champion job and it looks like there might be a right result.

    Bear in mind some donations may come from folks with no association with this site. They will need to know it is being done all cosher like.

    Sending a fat wad to some bloke called Mad Mark in Wales may not cut it.

    I have a current IPAF ticket (SL. SPB and Harness) if I can find it, do we have any licensed scaffolders/ tower erectors available?

    This could be useful for painting etc as well as the electrical side.

    Would BASC be prepared to cover us with insurance while we are working onsite? Would our existing BASC membership cover us as its (loosely) shooting related?

    I can find my generic method statements for working at height/ risk assessments etc, or do we have anyone able to do site specific ones?

    I have current experience of the Working at Height Regulations, Abestos Awareness Certificate and experience of mobile tower scaffold erection also have a CITB Scaffold Inspectors Certificate, should also be able to knock up some reasonable drawings by hand (IT is not my speciality) then will probably scan these and send them to who needs them anyone who needs specific info please let me know what you require. Nealsey will use your list as my initial survey requirements

    Using telephone or online banking a bill payment can be sent with a reference to that account. This could also be done in a branch and should be free!

    That's all you'll need...just sent in my donation.

    It's the same amount of info you'd need to create a payment for a purchase off the BBS (the same detail on a cheque too)

    It seems that to pay by paypal an email address is needed to make the payment to, Do we have any information on this.

    Sorry to be a pain, but I have just completed my tour of the 4 high st banks trying to pay into this account with little success

    Lloyds TSB didn't have a clue, Nat West said try Barclays, Barclays said try HSBC. HSBC said that it looks like one of their sort codes but the Butterfield Bank must have set HSBC up as a collection agent...but they cannot accept the money on an HSBC paying in slip, you need one from Butterfield Bank.

    I haven't a clue about pay pal, I've got £100 in cash of Southern regional shooters' money itching to be paid into this fund - help!

    I can pay it into my account and write a cheque (to...?) if that helps.
