If so, do you want to sponsor a charity fundraising chess match?
I sit on the board of The Chase Area Young Enterprise and am organising a 20 simultaneous chess match between my good friend Grandmaster Ray Keene OBE and 20 people who'd like to play him
I need a main sponsor, looking for £2k, and 20 match sponsors of £50 each.
Ray is giving his time for free, so long as we meet his travelling expenses.
We have a room at the Ramada Hotel Cannock (Birmingham North) at a much reduced rate and a local Chess enthusiast is helping me with the game organisation.
Now I just need to find some money - doesn't everyone.
So I thought I'd tap in to this wealth of people to see if anyone knows
their boss is in to chess and might be willing to put up some money, if
indeed you may wish to do so yourself
We can guarantee advertising in The Times - Ray writes for them, maybe The Sunday Times and Spectator, also we are looking at a local radio interview, maybe tv and of course various articles in our local press.

If you don't know who they are.
Our Chase area is run by two part-time members of staff and 15 volunteers.
A leaflet explaining the match is here.

pass on my details to whomever you feel may help.
And just to keep it period property related, you can come and look at my house as well afterwards!!!
