Trust Membership – 2025
Membership for 2025 can now be purchased and you can rejoin via our website by visiting:
www.faxtrust.org
The cost is still just £15 which includes our fabulous monthly prize draw.
Membership can also be bought as a gift! The more members we have,
the more we can support our club.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us for any further information.
Pre-loved
We are appealing for donations of rugby merchandise including rugby shirts, polo tops, t-shirts,
coats, hoodies etc as our stocks are running very low!
If you have any pre-loved items that you would like to go to a new home, please

Many thanks as always for your support

Update from Chairman – David Durbin
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your support this year and
I hope you feel able to continue or renew your membership for next year. It was
your support that enabled us to raise the £19k to help the Club through its
financial difficulties. There is no change in the joining fee as it remains at £15
and as usual all members go into a monthly draw to win prizes of greater value
than the joining fee. Your continued membership is a vital part of our fundraising for the
Squadbuilder fund. You can do this by visiting our website Faxtrust.org or at any of our
stalls/events during the coming year.
On the subject of fundraising we recently held a raffle which was drawn live at the Whitehaven
game. This is still available to watch on our Facebook page. However, it seems that not everyone
has seen it and therefore here is the list of the winners:
1. Ticket number 0753 – Wayne Rafferty – 2 nights at Bowers Mill
2. Ticket 1600 – A Westwood – Match day Experience
3. Ticket. 1704 – P. Haggerty – Afternoon tea at Harvey’s
4. Ticket. 0627 – G Clayton – 1.5 litre Brandy
5. Ticket. 0115 – Taffy – 2 Mega breakfast at the Shay Cafe
6. Ticket. 1388 – R. Wood – Bottle Famous Grouse Whiskey
7. Ticket. 0185 – A Bennett – £20 voucher for Boothwood Inn
8. Ticket 0455 – Vicky – Robin Aspin 150 year framed picture.
9. Ticket. 1310 – J Thompson – Club 150year book.
10. Ticket. 1913 – L Clayton. – Quality Street.
My apologies for this late notification and our assumption that everyone uses social media!
Like me I’m sure we all wish Kyle Eastmond a successful season in his first coaching appointment
and we as always will give him our full support.
Finally, as this is our last newsletter for the year, I would like to take the opportunity to wish you all a very happy Christmas, and a healthy and prosperous New Year.

WINNER!!
