Thanks to the continuing good work of many, the grand total raised so far by our charity, ROSS REVENGE (HOME OF RADIO CAROLINE) is approaching £500,000.

Remarkable, because this is all down to the efforts of supporters, volunteers and charity trustees, and comes before we make an approach to the National Lottery Heritage Fund, planned for next year. The total we have raised hugely increases the chance of a favourable Lottery outcome.
