We started the socials in November, the intention to get local swingers together. this has worked well, first couple re made a loss, but since then a small profit as it was never the intention to profit from them we decided to donate excess to local charities
So far we have sponsored 2 Donkeys a t Eccup donkey sanctuary, as they are used by disabled children, some to a FAB guy who doing a charity bike ride and Finally to the Bradford Toy Library, they loan sensory toys and equipment out to disabled children.
So a great big thank you to all fab members who have attended the socials and are going to in the furure :-0
Phoenix and Twiggy :-0 xx |

"Do the charities know the nature of the events they're benefitting from?
They are social events, nothing else, so what is your concern ? "
You need only read the thread to realise that's not how it will be portrayed in the media, especially re the toy library and disabled children. |

Cynical? Yes but I've been through similar 'cos the media chose to look at an innocent, well intentioned gesture in the 'perverts fund disabled kids' light.
I wish it were otherwise. It ain't. |
