Sponsorship

We are very grateful to the following list of sponsors without whom the “Flyer” could never have been created:

  • Atkins & Cripps, Hardwood Importers
  • Cory Environmental Trust
  • Kerrier District Council
  • Redruth Charity Trust
  • Redruth Town Forum
  • Redruth Town Council
  • Transco plc

Many local companies have provided donations, materials and services for construction of the steam carriage, including Hobby Club, Camborne. We are indebted to MY Motors of Redruth who have provided transport in the early stages of the project. Cornish Linen Services provided our display team with smart boiler suits.  Support has also been provided by Rent-a-Fence of Redruth and Shaun Moyse by the loan of transportation trailers and towing vehicles.
Other sponsors have included the Redruth Mayor`s Charity Fund; the Neighbourhood Renewal Community Chest; Chris Thomas, Gents Hairdresser, Redruth; The Murdoch Bar, Redruth.

Sponsors and helpers are acknowledged in our public display. All sponsors of the project to the value of £500 or more are identified by a brass plaque affixed to a coal and water wagon which is displayed with the full size steam carriage.

By becoming a 'Friend of theFlyer' your £5 annual subscription covers the period 1st January to 31st December each year and supports the work of the project. The Membership period of new 'Friends' joining on or after 1st October in any year extends to 31st December in the following year.

As a 'Friend', you will receive two newsletters each year, in Spring and Autumn, giving information about the project, updated news, advance notice of our activities and you will be invited to participate in them if you wish to do so.

This project is ongoing. We need your financial help now so that we can continue to use our workshop facilities and insure and display the full size replica of Murdoch's steam driven carriage. We will appreciate any financial support, large or small, which you are able to offer us. All enquiries please contact us.
