During the first lockdown our Men’s Vice Captain, Mike Taylor, started writing poems as a way of passing the time and grew to become an (almost) daily Facebook post to share with his online ‘friends’, the subject matter covers social distancing, restricted travel and most importantly praise for the work undertaken by the many people who selflessly worked on in very demanding circumstances.
At his own expense Mike has had a booklet containing his first 25 poems professionally designed and printed and has so far raised a total of £300 which has been donated to two charities, JPK Project which was formed to provide opportunities for people with learning difficulties and People Matter which provides free information, advice and guidance to local jobseekers, whether or not they are currently working, Mike is a volunteer at this charity.
JPK Project is the chosen charity for the Eastbourne Open Bowls Tournament which Mike runs, the booklet is £5 and can be ordered online via the tournament website https://www.eobt.club or you can contact Mike direct on 07702 244855 or by email email hidden; JavaScript is required
All proceeds going to these two charities, JPK Project and People Matter
Well done Mike, they are a great read.
