Burghley the final facts and figures.

[Ed50]

Dear All,

This is just a brief closing notice for our Burghley House Aston Martin Event and weekends fund raising activities.

Firstly may I thank you for your help,support and generosity surrounding this years Event.

The main Event on Sunday attracted a record attendance of Aston Martins gathered in one place after 600 cars entered the grounds at Burghley.

These vehicles were cross checked and counted twice by differing officials and the numbers matched to the takings to validate the numbers.

Since the opening of my Virgin Money Page in support of this event and adding in the addition funds raised over the weekend the total currently stands
at £45,427.05 net which is a staggeringly huge amount which everyone connected to the event should be pleased and rightly proud of.

I shall add the link to the Event Gallery as soon as Steve Wright has finalised his mammoth task of putting the best of his 5000 taken images together for your enjoyment.

Should you wish at anytime to visit Steve's Gallery please go to: www.skwimages.com

Steve will be pleased to hear from you with your orders and enquires: [e-mail]

Now for the final curtain call if you please………...

I'm hoping to raise just a little more as a closing gesture after Andy Palmer and the factory kindly donated a 4 person VIP tour of Gaydon which includes lunch with Andy,please book
your tour in conjunction with his very busy diary.

To further enhance any Aston Martin enthusiasts dream we have also added in addition to the Gaydon visit a further VIP tour of Works Service at Newport Pagnell which the management
at Newport Pagnell have kindly offered.

Bids to me please for this combined lot……...

Please email me your bids for this final lot direct please to: [e-mail]

I will contact the winning bidder over the next few days and send on the package of correspondence that tells you who to contact to claim your prize..

Payment for this final lot is to my Virgin Money Giving Page for ease: http://bit.ly/1Sga3cV

Kind regards,

Ed.

Ed, a fantastic achievement and congratulations to you, your family and your happy helpers in putting on such a wonderful event. I know how important to you it was that a good amount was raised for charity and you must be very proud of what you have achieved. My lot that made it a long weekend believe it was the best 'away day' event we have ever done and I wouldn't argue with that at all.

You never know that VIP lunch with AP may get you over £50k

[LordBretSinclair]

£45k !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There will be many people less fortunate than ourselves who will benefit greatly from all the fantastic work you have done Ed.

They will be unaware of where the funds have come from which will help make their lives that little bit easier so can I, on behalf of them and all Burghley attendees, once again say a huge well done to you and all your helpers and THANK YOU !!!!!
