*****UPDATE ALL MUGS NOW SOLD - Winner will be announced later this evening when the last mugs have been collected*****
HUGE THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO TOOK PART..😁

Happy Monday everyone and once again THANK YOU for supporting our event on Saturday , we are overwhelmed by all of the positive comments.
***We need your help once again***
We have 39 of these fabulous "original" Uttoxeter town Jubilee Mugs left to sell and we really want our charities to benefit as much as they can before we tally up final figures just before our GRAND Raffle on the 23rd of June.

SO ....if you haven't already purchased a Mug, we are offering these at cost price £3.50 and in return you get the chance to win 2 premier tickets for Ladies evening this Thursday at Uttoxeter Racecourse with the one and only MARTIN KEMP.

We have placed a Gold Star inside the box of one of the mugs and mixed them all up.
When you buy the mug, you get to choose which box- if you find the Gold Star you get the tickets and can go and enjoy this fabulous event…

Mugs can be purchased from the Town Hall tomorrow ( 9am til 1pm ) and Wednesday (10am til 2pm ) Please try and bring the correct money £3.50.

If you cant get to town over the next 2 days but would like to support please email [email protected] and let us know and we can help. You can also talk to any one of our committee members through Facebook who will also try to help.
