Story
To defend democracy and prevent Brexit, the London People’s Vote march on 19th October must have a huge turnout. This will maximise impact on the government and MPs, and ensure European governments hear the message that the UK still wants to be a European country.
At the last big London march, Chester for Europe booked and filled 2 coaches. This time, we have booked 3 coaches to take people to London on the morning of the march. The cost of these coaches is £4400. The deposit already paid is £1,000. The full payment is required on 4th October.
Chester for Europe is selling tickets at £33, which will rise to £38 I on 1 October. So far, half the tickets are sold for the first bus. On previous occasions, many people asked to buy tickets at the very last minute when all the tickets had been sold. Also, for some people, £33 is not money they have readily available.
Therefore Chester for Europe has launched this appeal for financial support. We would really like to fill all three coaches, but there is a substantial risk to our group’s finances if ticket sales are slow through the rest of September. We can’t take the chance of a last minute rush of orders and may have to cancel the third coach.
Chester for Europe would also like to offer discounted tickets to low income groups, to encourage maximum turnout. By offering a discount to students and other groups, we hope to enable participation to people who are otherwise excluded from the democratic process. We need financial flexibility to enable this to happen.
Therefore, please support our Crowdfunding appeal.
We need to raise:
£1,000 by 3rd October to be able to send 3 buses to London on 19th October.
£2,000 by 18th October to be able to offer concessionary tickets.
Please support our appeal.

5 years agoThanks to everyone who has contributed to our appeal to date. We've been active on social media, local March leaflet delivery and of course good old face to face discussion to promote this event. We hope to send 3 busloads to London, to make sure that our voice is heard - please support our appeal to make this happen.

I’ll be there next month and I want as many people as possible from Cheshire to also be there so that they can be heard. I hope this donation makes a small contribution to ensuring that’s the case.
