As you can see from the photo, Belper HC in Derbyshire has been completely inundated by the river Derwent bursting its banks. Just getting their pitch cleared and cleaned is expected to cost £5000.

In order to help a member of the Hockey Family in need, we are going to be raising money towards their flood recovery effort over the next two Saturdays - 16th and 23rd November.

We will be running fund raising scratch-cards in the clubhouse, just £1 a go. The more cards we fill, the more money we will raise. So please make sure you pop into the club house over the next two match days and take part.

The club has agreed to match fund everything we members contribute, so please give generously.
