Weʼve raised £1,050 to Fund the Red Arrows display at Sidmouth Regatta
- Sidmouth, United Kingdom
- Funded on Sunday, 16th August 2015
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
In the past the Red Arrows were a fixture at our annual Regatta but as costs escalated it became difficult to pay the bill and the display dropped out of their schedule. This is turn meant the Regatta had to be scaled back. We have been offered subsidy for this year by the Town Council and are also working on sponsorship and other fundraising in the hope that not only can we bring them back for 2015 but can make it a sustainable business model for years to come
