MAKE A DONATION


The LRYSA rely soley on our Volunteers to run all of our activities - those running the sessions, the Safety boat drivers and all the behind the scenes administration.


However we could not operate without our boats and equipment, all of which we rely on fundraising and Grants to buy and maintain to a high safety level.


Making a Donation is easy - just click the Donate button and if you are a Tax Payer then please add Gift Aid.  All Donations are gratefully received.




You will be asked how much you want to Donate and prompted to enter your information if you want to add Gift Aid (if you are a Tax Payer).  However you can remain completely anonymous if you wish to (but we won't get the additional Gift Aid)


If you have any questions or concerns then please contact Nicki Magee (Treasurer) on  07970013428
