How We Use Funds
The charity receives no direct funding and therefore relies on money donated to sustain it.
As all of our committee members are volunteers there are no wages, no offices, and no rent to cover and apart from administrative costs for stationery, postage, printing and consumables all the money raised is directed towards our cause.
- Subsidised outings for all our members and their families to events such as:
- Colchester Zoo
- Cliff Pavilion Pantomine
- Stubbers Adventure Centre
- Soft play areas for the younger members
- Theatre trips
- Organising opportunities for our members such as West Ham United and Essex Fire Association
- Making donations for other charities working with our members
- We also take part in training and information sessions for schools, professionals and other local groups
