Gala Bingo - Raising £1Million For Charity

  • Gala Bingo - Raising £1Million For Charity

    By Lisa West on Monday, 14th September 2009

    Gala Bingo have begun a national drive to raise £1MILLION for Sue Rider Care, over just eighteen months.  That’s a very noble cause, and a very noble gesture.  You may have heard already, about the trip to base camp on Everest.  But that’s not all the Gala employees are up to! They are all pretty busy right now, organising more great fundraising events, and of course, they need the help of their members. At the Gala Bingo Hall in Southampton, they have just raised hundreds of ££££££’s, for Gala’s Sue Ryder Care, charity push.  

    In just one month, the Gala Bingo Hall in Lords Hill has raised over £750 for Sue Rider.  Simply by holding some regular prize draws and some fun Tombolas.  To date, they have managed to collect more than £1500 - Amazing what can be achieved, just by having some fun!  ; )  Sue Cooper is a committee fundraiser for Lord’s Hill.  Sue has nothing but praise for all the players who have joined in, as well as the local businesses who have donated some great prizes.  

    First prize, in their big monthly draw last month, was a fantastic weekend for two in Bruges.  Right now, they also have a group paintball offer, for up to thirty five people, up for offer.  The package is worth over £500, and was another donation from a local, Southampton business.  If you have a Southampton business, and would like to make a donation, why not contact Sue?  Tel: 023 8074 1117.

    Not just the Gala Bingo land based club members can join in, and lend a helping hand.   
    Every Tuesday, at exactly 7.25pm, online players join up with players at Gala’s 90ball Bingo Halls, for a linked, Charity game.  For every £1 sold in tickets, online and off, Gala Bingo will put 10p into the pot.  Like they say, no-one splashes the cash like Gala Bingo!!!
