Sir.-"The Lions Need You". Not those Lions - Chineham Lions!

The Hampshire division two club are seeking a home after seven years in a nomadic existence.

We are conducting a "field appeal" to Government, schools and farmers alike. This appeal now goes out to The Gazette readership.

Chineham RFC are also seeking sponsorship of a club house where the heart of the club can reside.

Failing that, we have a desperate need for new training equipment such as training tops, tackle suits and bibs.

However, any philanthropist who is bored of giving to art galleries or companies, or tired of corporate days out watching court 18 at Wimbledon, and who wants to give an up-and-coming north Hampshire club a home, is welcome to e-mail me at Richard_avenell@yahoo.co.uk
