Ambient Sound Hire recently hosted a 60's Music Night and is giving a donation from the evening to Lincs Ark.
Could you help us by doing something like this?
Perhaps host a Coffee morning? Organise a Sponsored Walk, Swim, Silence, etc? Have a Jumble Sale? Garage Sale?
If you would like to help us raise funds by holding an event of your own, please get in touch and let us know.

We would like to say a huge thank you to Jill and Peter Hilton for very kindly opening their garden to the public for the second year running, we just cannot thank you enough for all you have done for us. We had beautiful weather and thanks to the 252 visitors who supported us we raised £1,550 which was fantastic!
A big thank you also to Nick and Jo for making scones for the cream teas and organizing the refreshments stall and the kitchen, it all ran like clockwork. Also their family, Ruth, Lizzie and partners for their support in the kitchen and continuous washing up!
Thank you to Peter and Jill’s friends and neighbours from the village who very kindly lent their garden furniture for visitors to sit at and enjoy their cream teas, and to those neighbours who helped with refreshments.
This year we were lucky enough to have use of the field opposite as a car park, so our thanks go to Dave Underwood for this and to Mr & Mrs Spiking for allowing us to use their land; it made such a difference to the success of the day.
Thank you to the stall holders that came along and supported us. Also to Lisa Hammond, Massage & Beauty Therapist for offering to give hand and foot massages and donating the proceeds to Lincs. Ark. Lisa raised £35!.
Finally Thank you to all our committee members and volunteers who come along to help on the day, bake cakes, bring produce and give up their time ,without you, running these events would not be possible.”

Lincs Ark would like to say a BIG thankyou

For the month of June they have kindly offered us space in their pet department

The staff have all been very friendly and accommodating and we met some lovely, generous members of the public who have helped us raise over £65 to date (13.06.10), which will all go directly to helping the animals in our care.
