North Western MD Clubs...

...are ever mindful of their own good fortune in having both the health and the opportunity to take part in an interesting and energetic outdoor pursuit, metal detecting clubs invariably support national and local charities. Here in the Northwest the latest figure to hand totals, £ 31,320 made in donations by our clubs. Fifty three national and local charities have received support including:-The Spinal Unit Action Group, The Spastics Association, Multiple Sclerosis Society, Rett Syndrome Association, R.N.L.I. , Save the Children and RESCUE - for the Brain Damaged Infant as well as a large variety of local hospices and appeals.

Many charity organisations contribute to their own success by negotiating sites on which to hold fund-raising metal detecting rallies from amongst their land-owning supporters. Clubs in the Northwest have also contributed to the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution, known as "The Farmer's Own Charity", in recognition of the generosity shown in the provision of sites.
