Bear Patrol collection tins appeal gets closer to 500 target!

380 collection tins already donated – 120 left to go !

Last month Bear Patrol, the social networking group for bears and their friends launched a new community fundraising project to purchase a new batch of collection tins to help further promote the services of The Sussex Beacon and to increase the amount of tins circulated in the local community.

The new tins are white in colour, will also include security chains and the Beacon’s new logo which is due to be rolled out in April 2016.

Bear Patrol are asking community members to donate just £2 each which will cover the cost of purchasing one collection tin. Bear Patrol are aiming to purchase a batch order of 500 collection tins by the end of March.

If you would like to support and purchase a Sussex Beacon collection tin, click the donation link below and donate £2. If you want to purchase more than 1 tin amend the amount you wish to donate (i.e. 5 tins = £10) and when you have made your donation you can also leave a message of support as you wish.

Danny Dwyer, organiser of Bear patrol said: “These new collection tins will also help to replace some of the older tins which are now tired and/or damaged and as always we thank you for your support.”
