We all know it's wonderful to have friends. And if you can make friends while you are supporting a worthwhile venture in your local community, then that is doubly pleasing.

The Friends of Pocklington Arts Centre are a special group of people. They are from all walks of life, of different ages, and in common - give all their support to Pocklington Arts Centre. They want more from it than just sitting on a seat there. They enjoy being involved. Why do we need you to join us?

If you are someone who believes that having a thriving place in your town where young and old enjoy watching films, see plays, laugh at comedians and be introduced to a range of music and art - then you are already half way to becoming a Friend. You can be involved socially or in active volunteering - meeting people in a friendly atmosphere.

Some Friends like to help the Arts Centre by giving a few hours a month, helping the management with a range of interesting jobs. You could help on the box-office, sell ice-creams or show people to their seats and take responsibility for their safety, whilst watching a performance. You can also help with leaflet or poster distribution. Alternatively, you may have ideas for fund-raising.

In order to make a success of the Pocklington Arts Centre, we would like you to join us. Please print out the application form, send in and you will receive confirmation of your membership via email or in the post in 28 days time.

The 300 Club
Each month the friends hold a draw where 1 number is drawn from those held by 300 people who are club members. The members need not be friends of the oakhouse. They pay £1 per month, and in return the lucky winner each month receives £50 or sum in ratio to membership numbers. You have an excellent chance compared to the National Lottery. Vacancies do occur in the limited membership
