RLACML Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 We're going for all of this!! Hoping we can get to £800 over the summer. We're on £75 after 3 hours, a week before payday so it's looking positive.Then can start doing fundraising at games when people see what we're actually doing.If you're raising £800 for the first game, how much of that investment can be carried over to other games? Some of the things can be reused but other stuff won't be able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBustler1884 Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 If you're raising £800 for the first game, how much of that investment can be carried over to other games? Some of the things can be reused but other stuff won't be able to.Good question.Assuming people don't take the flags home, around £550 will be spent on reusable stock, £250 on one time only things like balloons, streamers, leaflets, stickers, etc. Flagpoles and fire-safe flags aren't cheap.The idea is that we continue to fundraise throughout the season, stepping up every 4 or 5 home games so that come season end, the reusable stock is substantial.Will be a case of trial and error starting off though.

lakesidepair Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Ok, not wanting to be too controversial, but why fire safe flags? Have you actually asked the club at what size does something need to be firesafe. Ok if its something that is extremely large and permanently draped like a wall covering so the surface in a fire situation would support a running surface flame (not class 'O' standard) then yes fire retard-ency needed. But for a flag that is not as large and waved, or momentarily surfed then packed away. I do not see the need. As fans we turn up with more dodgy fabrics covering our personage and take a seat. yet we don't have to provide certification. Might be an idea for someone to ask Nigel the Safety Officer. He will then contact the local enforcing authorities for guidance and assured advice. Trust me you may get a pleasant surprise should the club have a grown up conversation with their Fire Safety advisors. But be mindful, the first time someone starts knobbing about with a 'flare/pyrotechnic' near your flags, it'd be reviewed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakesidepair Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Oh ok, you sure? Is it in the 'Green Guide?' The Safety At Sports Grounds/Stadia, thingy that the club has to adhere to get its license to operate? Anyway ask the question. Would you want much bigger than 3'x2'? or many of the bigger size?
