Maggie
Davis has now received the total raised from recent fundraising
events held over the last few months. The Charity Golf and Gala
Ball & Auction held at Dartmouth in August, along with the
online donations raised a fantastic £11,500.00 which has
been donated to the Motor Neurons Disease Association. On behalf
of Sid’s family and all those involved in organising the
events, thank you for your support and donations.
Sid would
be chuffed to bits.
Individual
donations can still be made via the MND Association website
at: www.mndassociation.org
Best wishes
to all

*************************************************
A
Charity Golf day and Gala Ball took place at the Dartmouth Golf
Club on Thursday 12th August to raise funds for the MND Association.
The event was initially organised by former WO1 Bandmaster Simon
“Sid” Davis and his wife Maggie following Sid being
diagnosed with MND some 18 Months ago. Sadly Sid didn’t
live to see the event take place, as he died on 28th May as
a result of Motor Neurones Disease.
During
the day nearly 70 Golfers played the course and in the evening
over 150 friends, family and many former RMB colleagues attended
a Black Tie Ball. Music before the event was provided by the
BRNC Volunteer Band “Big Band”.
The
Charity day raised over £8,000 for MND and an online donation
page set up by Maggie Davis for those unable to attend the Charity
day has raised another £2,000 so far. The page remains
open for donations to this worthwhile cause.
If
you are in contact with anyone who may have served with Sid
and you think they would like to donate, please forward the
link on.
On
behalf of Sid’s family, thank you.
