What you can do...

We are looking for people with enthusiasm and/or ideas to help us raise this money. If you can help please contact our fund-raising co-ordinator Julian Bates (wylamschoolappeal@hotmail.com). Alternatively...

Buy books from Amazon

Within this site you will find links that will take you to Amazon.co.uk the on-line supplier of books, CDs and much more. If you click on this link every time you want to buy something from Amazon, a percentage of what you spend will go to our appeal.

It won't cost you a penny more than you would otherwise pay and you can be reassured that we will not receive any details of your book buying habits! So please use this site as your gateway to Amazon, and ask your relatives, friends, work colleagues to do so too. Why not e-mail them our URL now? You can solve your Christmas present problems, and support the appeal at the same time, without leaving your chair!

Check out our 'Book Corner' which will have regularly updated reviews and links to specific books. (Note if you buy a book specifically recommended on this site, Amazon will treble the donation they send to us!)

Buy from another affiliated site

As with buying from Amazon buying from any of the other affilaited sites we currently have will generate money for our appeal without costing you a penny extra!

JET Smile Card

Help the appeal when you buy fuel at the JET garage in Crawcrook. Each litre of petrol purchased means 1p towards the appeal. Simply ask them to scan it on to the school SMILE card held behind the till. 1p is donated for every £1 spent in the shop and 15p when using the car wash. Nearly £50 accumulated so far!

Appeal to Wylam residents

This month we will be sending an appeal to every home in the village. We hope this effort will make a substantial contribution to our total. Please do all you can to support us and encourage others to do so.

Are you a former pupil of Wylam First School?

If you once attended Wylam First School, the Appeal Committee would be delighted to hear from you. We are planning to organise a reunion for former pupils, so if you would like to meet your former classmates, please get in touch. If you are still in contact with other former pupils please pass the information on to them. There will be a small prize for the oldest former pupil we can trace, and for the former pupil who lives furthest from Wylam. Can you help us find them?

Do you know of an organisation or individual who might be able to help us?

If you think you might be able to put us in contact with a potential donor we should, of course, be delighted to hear from you. Please get in touch with Julian Bates our Fund-raising Appeal Co-ordinator either by e-mail:
