Hello

I am managing the Cancer Research UK Race for Life events and would like to ask for yours or your fellow LandRover club members help to volunteer your vehicles please on the event days? I require help to set up and take down the race signage, stakes, tape and also transport the marshals to their positions etc. Is this something you would be interested in or someone you could put me in touch with? The events I manage are:

Gloucester Hartpury College – 27 June

Cheltenham Racecourse – 3 & 4 July (setting up on 2 July)

Swindon Lydiard Park – 24 & 25 July (setting up on 23 July)

Please find attached a link to our Race for Life website which will give you information about Cancer Research UK and our events. www.raceforlife.org. In summary Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life is the largest women-only fundraising event in the UK Since 1994, women of all ages and fitness levels across the UK have come together at these inspiring events to walk, jog or run 5k to help beat cancer. They bring their family to watch and cheer them all on. Some take part in celebration of surviving a cancer experience. Others take part in memory of a loved one or to give hope to a cancer-free future. But all of them share a common goal: to raise money for Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work to beat cancer. Every pound raised in sponsorship or fundraising helps to fund the work of over 4,500 researchers, doctors and nurses dedicated to helping more people beat cancer.

Would  you please let me know as soon as possible if you can help me.

Thank you very much

George’s Chat

A reminder, the following is an extract from recent SCOR minutes:

Spill Kits. From the MSA a rule change that will affect all competitors. Common Regulations for Competitors: Vehicles [C (b)]: Strongly recommended from 1st Jan 2010 and Mandatory from 1st Jan 2011:

It is strongly recommended for all competitors participating in single venue competitions to have available at their paddock base, and for multi venue competitions to carry within their vehicle a self contained spill kit capable of effectively absorbing minor spillages of up to 1.5litres of all vehicle fluids –
oils, fuels, coolants, battery acid. Used spill kits are to be disposed of in accordance with local or National guidelines.

Simone stated that by looking at online sites prices varied from approx £15-30. Richard Smith, Midland ROC stated that his company could supply kits which will absorb up to 2ltrs and details have appeared in ALRC News. Costs are £6.95 per kit but clubs can buy them in multiples of 10 for £6.25 each. We suggested that one 7.5 litre pack be available at an event and positioned beside the main event fire extinguisher.

I have received the following ref the 2 Day Charity RTV hosted by Wye & Welsh:

Just a reminder that the 2 Day Charity Team RTV trial is at the end of this month (26th./27th. June)Hosted by the Wye & Welsh LRC, it's taking place at Radyr, near Cardiff.
If you are quick, we will still accept entries as we have "extended the closing date until the allotted spaces are filled." ( If C&D can do it, so can we ! )
Please let our bookings guy, Pete Gladman, know that you'll be coming.

Chairmans Chat

Welcome to the home page of the Somerset And Wiltshire Land Rover Club.

Thanks to all who attended the Wookey meeting. The Diesel fuel was auctioned off with all 4 lots sold. My thanks again to the donor. A good sum of money was raised for our charity and we should have a grand total in time for our next meeting.
