Fundraising Event Generates £5104.00 for Charity

Inner Frame were honoured to have organised a fundraising event earlier this year which included our very own North Wales Dragons and are thrilled to announce that the event generated a sum of £5104.00 for Charity.

The charities which have benefited from the money are Clic Sargent Scotland, Neves Charities, Boots for Africa and Buckley Town FC in the Community.

We have so many people to thank who played a pivotal role in putting the event together, promoting or providing raffle and auction prizes, so a big thank you to Randstad Staffing Solutions for being the Dragons main Sponsor.

Also to Speaks Volumes, The Quay Hotel, Clear Reality, Recognition Express, Powlsons Printers, The Ayrshire Outsiders, Sheffield Football Club, Buckley Town Football Club and last but by no means least, the amazing Event Organisers that are Ysbryd-y-Ddraig.

Inner Frame would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved with the North Wales Dragons, particularly the players who collectively raised £1187.00 for Neves Charities.

We have now held three events raising money for charity and to date we have amassed a sum of over £10,000.00.

Turning our attention to the next event, we look forward to raising money for Cancer Reasearch UK’s ” Join the Fight ” against breast cancer. For further details please have a look at our North Wales Dragons page.

Top Bands Framed for Charity

Some of the country’s leading pop stars were at the ‘Chester Rocks’ concert held at Chester Racecourse this Summer, which included the likes of Taio Cruz, McFly, The Wanted, The Saturdays, Sugababes, Eliza Dolittle, Iggy Pop, Shaun Ryder, Feeder and The Lightning Seeds to name but a few, most of which penned their autographs on a specially commissioned layout.

The layout was subsequently framed and will form part of a ‘Items that money cant buy’ auction in aid of Help for Heroes at a forthcoming black tie event, to be held at Chester Racecourse on Saturday 17th September 2011.

As Help for Heroes is a charity that we support wherever we can, we waived all our costs for creating and producing this unique one off item.

We would sincerely like to thank Kate Dawson of Chester Races for allowing us the opportunity to be involved, raising money for such a fantastic cause.

Inner Frame Visit Gambia on Red Nose Day

We are totally in awe of what people do on Red Nose Day and the amount of money that is generated and donated every year.As a company, we try and do whatever we can for charity and on the most recent Red Nose Day, two very close friends represented Inner Frame whilst on holiday in Gambia recently.

With their guide, they visited one of the local schools near the Capital, Banjul, and donated books and pens for the children to use.

From the feedback we have received, the teachers and the school children were thrilled and extremely grateful for the donation which of course gives us great satisfaction that we have made a slight difference and also put some smiles on a few faces.

The Teachers and Schoolchildren Gathered Together

We also took the opportunity to explain to the teachers about the fabulous work that Sheffield Football Club do with the Boots for Africa Appeal and how they, together with a little input from ourselves, have gathered a number of second hand football boots together and sent them to the African Nations including Gambia.

North Wales Dragons Update

Our own North Wales Dragons were in action this past weekend as they played a warm up match against Total Tranmere prior to a tournament which they will be playing in on 21st May 2011 as they raise money for charity.

The Dragons lost 4-3 in which was an enjoyable and closely contested game.

We are extremely thankful to both Tranmere Rovers and to Total Tranmere as they have assisted in promoting Inner Frames’ involvement in the Boots for Africa Appeal wherever they can. Most recently they invited us on to their podcast to talk about some of the work that Inner Frame and the North Wales Dragons have been doing in conjunction with the appeal.

You can listen to an excerpt from the podcast here.

Inner Frame Support Boots for Africa via Tranmere Rovers

Inner Frame recently continued their support for the charity Boots for Africa by calling in on old friends and fellow supporters, Tranmere Rovers Football Club.

The club made great strides last year in collecting boots and raising awareness internally through the club and also externally through their supporters.

Following a meeting with Sue Beedles, Commercial Administrator, Tranmere Rovers have kindly agreed to continue their support for Boots for Africa by making a further collection internally and also by making an announcement in the next home match day programme requesting that supporters bring their old unwanted boots to the club shop.

Once again we thank everyone connected at Tranmere Rovers for their assistance in promoting the Boots for Africa Appeal in the North Wales / North West regions.
