Fundraising
The Hospitalité Committee raises funds in order to carry out its aims including promoting the message of Lourdes in the Archdiocese, and providing financial assistance to helpers and sick pilgrims. In order to carry out this work, it is vital that a steady stream of income is maintained. Below are some of the ways that our committee (and associated groups) raise funds. We hope that you will be able to support our work.

200 Club
One of the ways that funds are raised is through our 200 Club. The 200 Club is open to anyone who purchases a number or numbers for the quarterly draw. Numbers cost £12 each per annum and you can buy as many as you want.
The prizes are currently £50, £30 and £20 but with more support we can increase the number of prizes. Forms are available to download from the forms panel at the top of this page. We collect the money through Direct Debit (ie a one-off yearly payment of £12 for 1 no. or £24 for 2 nos. etc).
A form is attached below for you to complete and return. However, if you prefer, we are able to accept payment for 12 months in advance by cheque or cash.
