SMWCRT Fundraising
Maintaining an effective Cave Rescue capability has always been a challenge, not least because of the need to raise money for equipment and the day to day running of the team. SMWCRT is well organised and has equipment in two stores, ready to be put into use at short notice. We also have a Landrover Ambulance. Keeping all of this up to date and in a safe and rescue-ready condition has been financed for many years largely through the efforts of team members using a range of fund raising activities.
As a voluntary organisation working on behalf of the Police, we receive no regular funding of any kind. All income is attained either through donations, fundraising events and initiatives or through applying for grants.
As well as putting money directly into the donation boxes at South Wales Caving Club, Dan-yr-Ogof Showcaves, local pubs and other venues (Full list available here) you can :-
- Post a cheque directly to the Treasurer - use the Contacts Link on the left
- Donate through your caving club on an annual basis with your subscription - See your club treasurer for details
- Set up a standing order to donate a regular amount - Contact the Treasurer for details
Also don’t forget, if you are a taxpayer, fill in a gift aid form when you are making a donation. These are available from the Treasurer or Fundraising Manager, or by clicking the link below.
