I had a call out of the blue today from Grosvenor Casino in Portsmouth. We have been offered a fundraising night which will be something like this. £10 ticket of which £5 goes to charity. They put on food etc and I think a complimentary drink when you get there. It sounds like a really good idea as we can still do a raffle on the night. Their own PR does a lot and its not just us who will have to sell the tickets but they will use their own database (especially those they use for ladies nights ) and will do all the printing etc. I am arranging a meeting very soon with the lady and she will show me round and discuss what dates etc we can do. We may have lost the dogs night but thanks to the wonderful lady at the track who gave our number to the casino we may have another very good fundraiser  Liz x |

Look up Grosvenor Casinos and see if there is one in your area then give them a call. From what I can tell they do the hard work, we just sell as many tickets as we can , they will sell some too. A friend of mine has a hubby who works in Tesco and is going to convince him to organise a social night at a casion and it might just be our night rofl. Am going to see the lady tomorrow so will hopefully have a date for you soon. This same friend also wants to do a pub crawl so going to find out how easy to get a street collection licence, then we just need collecting tins and we will mug the clubbers  Liz x |

8th July, 7-30pm, Grosvenor Casion, Gunwharf Quay £10 per ticket, we will get £5 of it. They will also give us some raffle prizes for on the night. Ticket gives you drink when you arrive and food. They will also set up a Blackjack and a Roulette table to teach those who dont have a clue lol. People do not have to gamble to go as just the atmosphere is amazing in a casino. Lets hope this is a winner as would love to do it on a regular basis. Going to put another thread up for this Liz x |
