ROMSEY RAILWAY MODELLERS DONATE £1500 TO  LOCAL CHARITIES​

Each year the Romsey & District Railway Modellers Society hold their annual exhibition in the Crosfield Hall on the first weekend of March.  For the past two years this event could not take place because of Covid restrictions. However, this year the event was able to take place with refreshments too as the restrictions were lifted just two weeks before the exhibition date.

This was one of the first exhibitions to be held in 2022 and a record number of visitors attended. This enabled the Society to make substantial donations to local charities.

This week representatives from the Romsey First Responders and Romsey Food Bank were presented with cheques for £500 each additionally a similar amount was donated to Jane Scarth House,  the Romsey Cancer Support Centre.

The First Responders gave a talk and demonstrations on how to help a person who is choking also a patient who has suffered a fall. The Society's donation will assist them to purchase Paediatric Pulse and Oximeters for use with children,  and slip sheets used to help patients who have fallen. 

The representative from Romsey Food Bank explained that the Society's donation will go towards heating and supplying lunch for the community in their recently opened welcome space at the Freedom Centre. Additionally, general help with the upkeep of food as the demand rises over the winter period. 

The Society's next exhibition is on the 4th & 5th March 2023. Admission prices have been held as for previous years. See us also at the Romsey Festival in 2023. 

New members are always welcome to our meetings and please see contact det​ails on our web site www.rdrms.com
