Ticking the gift aid box should be pushed too. Costs nothing for the person donating.
LudlamBlade needs a sassy PR assistant. I would help but I’m an ugly old git thousands of miles away. (And I don't have a twitter account either)

Yes, it’s all over my feed.

Thanks for setting this up, it’s a great initiative and for a very worthy cause.

Yeah it's got nearly 500 followers, been retweeted by various journos and one or two of the youth team as well as St Luke's media team, also had a feature in the Star and the examiner!

The St Luke's campaign is really taking off, already flown past the target! Great work Blades!

What's your account Flawed? I'll make sure we're following you!

I think you’d be hard pressed to find someone that wouldn’t to be honest.

So why does the country keep on voting Tory? It frazzles my mind!

Jacinda Ardhern was correct when she said capitalism has failed, when we have children going hungry while the rich get richer, it can only be described as a failure. She’s absolutely right.

I hate food banks. I hate the fact they’re necessary. I’m not a communist, I don’t believe everyone should have the same but I do think that in a modern western society people shouldn’t be so skint they can’t afford basic food. I still put food in them, because people need to eat now and my good intentions and words won’t make a meal.

You’re not a communist. You’re a socialist. Two very different things even though the right wing media labels them as the same.

Can we keep politics away from this thread please, you can discuss that elsewhere? This is about PPV and donating to a good cause instead of making TV companies richer.
St Luke's has been around for years through the times of both political parties thank you.

Absolutely spot on.

Quick point as the OP - this fundraiser isn't for foodbanks because, as many have quite correctly stated, it's a sad sign when charity is required to feed local kids.

St Luke's Hospice has been providing critical care for patients with terminal illness for years, regardless of which political party is in power, and they need as much support as they can get at the moment, as do many people!

I chose St Luke's because they've helped several family and friends and are currently helping my uncle Jimmy, who many of you might actually know, he's a big old Blade! He was the fella who got chucked out of Wembley for lighting a flare!

It's so lovely to see how many Blades (and fans of other clubs!) have backed this already, St Luke's are blown away with the help, and we're not stopping yet!

Going on BBC Radio Sheffield just after 4pm to discuss the campaign etc, have a listen in if you can!

Cheers Blades!

"Covering their costs" has got to be the most ridiculous excuse since "bigger boys nicked the dog that ate my homework miss"!

I give it a month before they scrap it, more and more people speaking out now

 

[LudlamBlade]

Brilliant work so far Blades!!

Just about £500 over target! St Luke's are chuffed!
