Fulham Foundation
We intend to repeat the October dinner at Craven Cottage to raise money for Fulham Foundation for al the good causes it does in the name of Fulham FC to which we handed over a cheque for £5999 after the October event and to cooperate with them on fundraising events they are putting on such as their golf day in May 6th. It would be good to contribute at least one team. Everyone has their preferred charities but its best to have one for our club that encompasses everyone and the Fulham Foundation ticks that box.
Website
We intend to expand website for info on bank details and events. Please refer to website for any queries initially.
Membership
Membership is capped at 35.
David Roodyn, Alan Smith have an overall discretion regarding membership.
Venue
The RAC Pall Mall has excellent facilities and good food and wine. They know Alan well and therefore make the arrangements of every lunch much easier.
Comments
The Club had a successful year with lunches at RAC well attended with interesting Guests of Honour. We had our first non Fulham speaker in Mark Ramprakash . He was well received and we think it a good idea to have one event with a non Fulham speaker well known in his sport. For the other events we will invite a Fulham Guest and appreciate David Daly ‘s input. David has asked to make it clear he attends lunches and events as a paid up member of long standing and not as an interface/ facilitator of any complaint you may have with Fulham.
Our protocol for inviting a guest of honour is
- Identify a guest
- Liaise with David Daly
- Alan approaches the guest and extends invitation
- Any fee is discussed and agreed.
This works well and ensures a high calibre of guest. We welcome your suggestions of any potential guest but we cannot obviously guarantee his attendance.
