Some sad persons unknown broke down the door at RDA Coleraine recently, and stole our green Ifor Williams Horsebox - but left behind its divider. It may not have been a pristine or even very modern box, but it was ours, and the only one we had.
It would be nice to think it might be recovered, but realistically we have to accept that it is gone!
Debbie, one of our members has had an inspiration - Operation Horsebox - inviting work colleagues and friends of RDA Coleraine to make a small subscription - a £ or two towards the cost of a replacement. You can request an official Sponsorship Form by contacting us at this link.
If lots of people respond, then we don't need much from each. Follow this link to see how to make your donation and you can make the most of your subscriptions by using the Gift Aid system. You can get a Gift Aid Form from this link. and Download the Form. Click back to return to the Site.
Thanks to Radio Ulster & Wendy Austin for raising this problem on 11th November, and giving our Secretary the chance to highlight the problems this theft has caused RDA Coleraine, and to talk about the work that is carried out in the Causeway Coast Arena.
Thanks also to The Coleraine Chronicle for their sympathetic reporting of our problem.
Further Developments.
Income generation for this project is still ongoing - however the rush to get a box has subsided - well - through mutual friends, from 28th January 2010, Andrew Lamont, AJC Trailers Ltd, has provided RDA Coleraine with the use of a new HB511 Ifor Williams Horsebox for up to two years - Thank you Andrew
