This page will lead you to the people and places that make our functions very special. A lot of work goes into each event to ensure that everybody has a good time and we are able to raise some more coins for our charities fund.
In 2002 we had eighteen different shindigs including a Royal House Dinner with Companion Rat HRH Prince Phillip; a weekend Festival of Variety and Music Hall in Weston-Super-Mare; a tribute luncheon to Max Bygraves in the City of London; a show with Roy Hudd and his friends from 'Coronation Street' in Stockport and our annual boat trip up the River Thames. Us Rats always manage to put the 'fun' into 'fundraising'!
