Bingo Time!

April 2013

Dirty knee…33, clean the floor…54 and one little duck number 2 were just some of the numbers called at the Staffordshire R.A.B.I. bingo night at Hilderstone Village Hall. Bingo caller Philip Fitzpatrick did a superb job and almost 60 people enjoyed shouting “line” or “house” whilst raising funds for R.A.B.I. The night included refreshments prepared by committee member, Hazel Woodward, and with the support of Barclays made an impressive £1820.

Staffordshire Annual Dinner

14 March 2013

The Ingestre Suite at Staffordshire was filled with 314 guests on Thursday 14th March for the R.A.B.I. annual dinner. The night included a wonderful meal, fantastic entertainment from Staffordshire Young Farmers, and the very talented guest speaker, Lydia Slack. Auctioneer, Mike Williams raised £1832 for various lots ranging from canal boat trips and model lorries to holidays and signed football shirts. The night made over £7,750 (including £2,250 of match funding from Barclays).

NFU Donations

Stone and Eccleshall NFU dinner was a huge success at the end of January raising over £1,036 for R.A.B.I. and a further cash injection of £750 from Barclays was also received. Another NFU dinner arranged by the mid Staffordshire group resulted in a further donation of £350 for the farming charity.

NFU Donation

Many thanks to the North West Staffordshire NFU group for their recent donation of £100.
