RAG is the charity fundraising arm of t

Our aim is to raise money for cha

We're open to suggestions for new ways to raise money, and willing to help you put on your own event - just email the RAG Coordinator for more information.
Over the last few years we've
raised 100s of thousands of pounds for charity, including over £40,000 dedicated towards local Bristol charities and projects. RAG's fundraising total since its inception 85 years ago and is now well over a million.
