Save our Centre

We need to raise £85k

Newcastle under Lyme

This centre has helped over 10000 veterans over 7 years.

Following the decision by Stafford County Council to sell the building we occupy, our members and volunteers, along with support from a large number of organisations, have worked tirelessly, raising money to enable us to continue the vital work we do supporting those in need.

To all those who have helped to get us where we are today, thank you.

The figure raised so far and remembering the generous offer from John Caudwell to match fund everything we raise and we have raised, the amazing amount of £86,096.00.

We are so close to raising the new amount that the council have kindly accepted which is £85,000.

The fundraising will need to continue after the building has been purchased as we need to sustain the buildings and the work at the retreat.

We would again like to thank everyone who has worked so hard to help us, by collecting, donating, holding events and supporting us, we are overwhelmed by your hard work, dedication and what has been achieved.

Donation Methods

GoFundMe, most common way of donating but we do have to pay the gateway fee’s for details click here

Alternative Method
Donate

Especially for those with Apple Pay, using Wonderful 100% of any donation we receive. Most cards accepted but not all.

If using for first time it can be more difficult if you do not use Apple Pay and will ask for bank customer ID which is shown on your bank statements.
