VSO Durham - Big Cheque Event

VSO Durham invite you to celebrate their year of fundraising for VSO at the Big Cheque Presentation evening on 20th February 2012. The group fundraised throughout 2011, exceeding their initial target of £2,500 and raising over £5,000 for VSO. To mark this great achievement, VSO Durham will be presenting a Big Cheque to VSO UK Director Brian Rockliffe at Durham County Hall.

The event will also include speeches from Returned Volunteer, Paul Williams, who volunteered in Uganda between 2006 and 2010 and helped to reduce mother-to-child transmission of HIV from 50% to 1.8% at the Bwindi Community Hospital during that period; Baroness Hilary Armstrong, British Politician and VSO UK Board Member and Brian Rockliffe, VSO UK Director.

RSVP: If you would like to attend the event please email Karen Langdon with your confirmation. The event is free to attend but there is limited seating, so we strongly recommend you reserve your place with the organisers to guarantee space on the evening.

The event will start promptly at 6pm and the address for the event is: The Durham Room, County Hall, DH1 5UL.
