PTA

We are pleased to announce we now have a just giving page which will allow us to raise money virtually - https://www.justgiving.com/fo-nevillroadsch

This page is to raise donations for both schools, as you know our fund raising this year will look completely different than it ever has before especially without the Summer and possibly Christmas fairs not being able to take place. These events are our biggest fund raising times and we raise potentially thousands each year at each fair alone.

Without events like these and things like the discos we won't be able to support the schools as much as they need at a time when their need is greater than ever. We understand this is a really tough time for families but if you could donate what you can, the cost of a raffle ticket you'd normally buy at a fair or a hot dog at a disco this would make a really big difference to our schools in the months ahead.

As always we thank you for your support and community spirit during these very different difficult times we find ourselves in.

here are currently 3 ways to raise money for the school while shopping that costs you nothing extra-

AmazonSmile

0.5% of your purchases from Amazon is given to Friends of Nevill Roads Schools

Easy Fundraising

Use their app to go through to online retailers (most are on their from the supermarkets to high street shops to insurers and more) and we can up to 5% of what you have spent.

Co-op Charity Fund

2.5% of what you spend comes back to the school.

Below are instructions for signing up to these. Please feel free to share with Family and Friends.

Thank you

Friends of Nevil Road Schools
