Co-op Local Community Fund

On Saturday 18th November Morpeth RDA were invited along to the Co-op “Join in Live” event at The Biscuit Factory in Newcastle upon Tyne to represent the Co-op’s local cause groups. Georgie Simmons, one of our trustees, gave a short talk on what Morpeth RDA does and our experience of being a Co-op cause.

During the last twelve months a total of £3,514.75 was raised for Morpeth RDA via the Co-op community fund. We were also given the opportunity to promote ourselves in store. Not only that but we also gained two new wonderful volunteers from the Co-op staff.

Whilst our involvement in the community fund has ended for the time being we hope to benefit again in the future – if you are a Co-op member don’t forget to access your account and choose a new local cause to support.

Once again it is a huge thank you to the Co-op and their members.

New Rugs For Our Ponies

With the increasingly wet weather we have found it almost impossible to get our ponies rugs dry and so despite already having a large selection we have felt it necessary to invest in some more. Luckily Harry Hall had a good saving on the rugs so we were able to kit all the ponies out to match. The ponies looked super smart at first try on but we are sure the rugs probably aren’t quite so pristine now.
Roll on next Summer!
