| Our Local Charity - Friends of the Yeatman Hospital |
Donation to Friends of the Yeatman Hospital
Members may be interested to see the response from the Honorary Treasurer of the Friends of the Yeatman Hospital in response to the Club’s donation of £170.
This was the sum raised at the recent Henton Charity event.
Many thanks for the generous donations from our members who played in the Henton Trophy competitions and to Sherborne Football Club who waived our rental for the competition sessions.
The letter mentions the beautiful garden at the Yeatman that has been maintained for several years by Jeff, their gardening volunteer. The Yeatman are searching for someone to assist Jeff and eventually replace him as he retires. If anyone knows of someone who might be interested, they would be delighted to hear!
