johnsammc Posted 19 November , 2010 Share Posted 19 November , 2010 Hi all, I`m planning another Erskine charity walk next year. I`m hoping to buy a bulk supply of wooden crosses as part of an idea i have to raise money (£27,647.20 raised through my site for my Somme Walk). Can anyone help with who i should be contacting and what this would cost as i`m trying to maximise the money to the ex-servicemans home. Any help would be appreciated John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bts1970 Posted 19 November , 2010 Share Posted 19 November , 2010 John I did something similar a couple of years back. I decided to contact Poppy Scotland who helped me out, i just got participants to purchase a few each etc & jobs a good un. The other option is The RBL directly i suppose, i believe that they both sell crosses for £1 each, whether they will sell a "bulk" amount for less you would have to ask, that way two charities benefit as well. A freind of mine actually paid a company to produce some crosses for his charity event, yes they worked out cheaper but the money went to a non ex service company, depends on your thoughts though.
