The For Rutland charity Good & New Clothes Sale is set to take place this Friday and Saturday.

On 22 and 23 March, For Rutland is back with the charity's annual Good & New Clothes Sale.

The charity is marking ten years this year, and the volunteer-led team have a wide range of events and fundraisers planned for 2024, kicking off with their upcoming New and Good Clothes Sale.

The event takes place over two weekends, with the Friday launch party set to begin at 5pm. Tickets for this exclusive event cost £25 and include fizz and canapés.

The Saturday event takes place from 8:30am until 1pm and tickets cost £5 on the door.

Following this, the team have a busy events schedule for 2024, with celebrations and fundraisers planned until September. These include The Grand Bottle Tombola at The Rutland Show, set to take place on 2 June.

On Thursday 6 June, the charity will be marking 10 Years of For Rutland at a Redhill Lodge Garden Party.

Finally, on Wednesday 11 September, a Golf For Rutland game will take place at Rutland Water Golf Club.

For Rutland raises funds for Citizens Advice Rutland to pay for Specialist Advisers who provide non-medical advice to people of all ages living with long-term health conditions in Rutland and the Surrounding Community. 

Since the launch of the local charity in June 2014, these Specialist Advisers have obtained over £9m in the form of grants, debt write off and benefit funding for the people who need this free, confidential, non-medical advice service.

Every penny raised by For Rutland stays in Rutland and expenses are kept to an absolute minimum to fund the Advisers.

All information on upcoming events, how you can donate and support For Rutland, or become a volunteer, can be found online: www.forrutland.org.uk or by emailing [email protected].
