[RAG] RAG Update

[Swansea RAG]

Hello raggies

 

Firstly, thanks to everyone who attended the RAG poker tournament at Woody's this saturday, and thanks to Gareth-Lee Smith from Primero Poker League for organising it. It was a great afternoon and we raised a decent amount for our charities.

 

Also, a big thank you to the Swansea raggies who travelled to London this weekend for the Breast Cancer Campaign Mega-Raid, the grand total collected was £50,617.82, with the small group of Swansea raggies contributing £1,878.31!!! Well done 

 

This week:

 

RAG meeting - Monday 26th October - 6pm Student Union Exec Room

 

A short meeting to keep you guys informed of whats going on with RAG. We'll also be asking for volunteers for Pinkathon to help with a campus collection, and selling tickets and cakes.

 

The Great Swansea Jump Info Meeting - Tuesday 27th October - 6pm Faraday Lecture Theatre

 

Our first ever charity skydive! The Great Swansea Jump is the newest addition to a series of highly successful charity skydiving events taking place at universities throughout the UK. 

 

One hundred students, graduates and staff members will be aiming to raise £10,000 for charity, whilst enjoying the experience of a lifetime at the lowest possible cost. With a whole weekend of skydiving and ground based entertainment planned, we aim to provide the most thrilling and fulfilling experience available within student life. 

 

So if you're interested in skydiving for FREE, raising money for a charity of your choice, and being part of the most exciting event at Swansea this year - The Great Swansea Jump is for you! 

 

The information meeting will cover the basics, and answer any questions you may have.
