Museum of British Surfing needs YOU for the building blocks appeal!
Museum of British Surfing - building blocks appeal - donate £10 for a block today and lets get this built together!
Our Friends at the Museum of British Surfing sent us a note about their appeal for raising funds to build the new permanent home for the museum and all the glorious surfing memorabilia they have been lovingly collecting over the years. This museum is a monument to British surfing with an amazing and unique collection that by ensuring the new home is built means that these pieces of history can be shared with everyone! Come on lets all help and get this built by working together! Chilled Turtle will be helping!
This is what Pete Robinson, the Founder said:
“We now have hundreds of friends on our mailing list and on our Facebook group - that’s a powerful force of support and we need your help. Our plan is to create a carbon neutral Eco-home for the Museum of British Surfing at Saunton in North Devon, and now is your chance to be a big part of that.
For a donation of £10 (UK sterling) to our Registered Charity, we will log your name and you will ‘buy a building-block’ to create the surf museum - we’ll make sure your name is inscribed on a founders’ plaque in the museum when it is open, to publicly thank you for your donation and support. Of course we would be delighted if you want to donate more and buy more than one ‘block’!
If you’re a UK tax payer we can claim Gift Aid on your donation, which means the Museum will receive an extra 25% from the Government.
Please help - it will be a very special Christmas present to the surf museum if you can.
Thanks very much for your support, from the Trustees and team at the Museum of British Surfing (Registered Charity No. 1131433).
How to donate:
Please post a cheque to: Museum of British Surfing Ltd, Barn View, Lower Park Road, Braunton, North Devon EX33 2HJ.
Don’t forget to include your name and address because we’ll need that to send you a Gift Aid form, and for the inscription at the Museum when it opens.
If you are outside the UK, please email thesurfingmuseum@btinternet.com for information on the best way to donate.
All donations received will go towards the planning and building of our new Museum only.
