Co72/23 Annual Fundraising Event
Just for clarity......... CO72..................... those fabulous sounds from that bygone era as classmates of 72 we all adored--- all played by a group of chaps who were blessed enough to be actually there and have that recall of those sounds from back in the day......firmly embedded in their mindset.... If you're fond of the oldies of that Wheel/Torch/UTJ/Va Va's/ early Wigan era....then you've hit the motherlode here !!!!!!!!! No really ...these chaps WILL Deliver !!! CO23.....................those sounds of 'today' delivered with aplomb from the firmly established FTMNTC team and guests.. widely acknowledged as delivering challenging and adventurous playlists whilst also attracting some of the most forward thinking and adventurous DJ's around to their FTMNTC nights......a taste of the NOW !!! Do YOU feel an urge coming on !

AS interest is building ....questions are arising about wristbands and ordering them prior to the event. NO just to confirm YES you can pay on the door. £10 entry on the door...you will receive a wristband PLUS a complimentary raffle ticket We really wanna make this as easy as possible...I see no sense in forcing people to buy wristbands beforehand and then be stuck with them if they cant attend......

British Heart Foundation UHNM charity.org We DO hope you can attend...its always a fun day and evening....your donations WILL go straight to the charities

1) A quick reminder for those kind people who are considering donating a prize for the raffle......a MASSIVE thank you --and if you hand it in on the door we will ensure it goes in with all the other prizes for the draw !! every little helps towards fundraising for our 3 charities this year MND University Hospital North Midland Charity British Heart Foundation 2) This is NOT just another Charity soul night.... .We DO emphasise the DAY/NIGHT aspect. of this long established annual event... get in EARLY if you can ... meet friends and acquaintances old and new..enjoy the separate bar and lounge area along with a fabulous alfresco space.. 3) with that in mind allow me to mention the car park onsite tends to fill up early, if you intend to get there later you may want to try in the first instance Once the venue car park is full..there is plenty of roadside parking outside the venue and surrounding roads and side roads Alternatively...there are 2 car parks approx 5 mins walk from the venue Antrobus Street, CW12 1HB West Street, CW12 1JR 4) travelling by car ? Easy access...under 20 mins from J17 and J18 M6....its a picturesque venue in a unique setting in South Cheshire
