Portsmouth Newsletter April 2017
5th April 2017 | Portsmouth
Manager’s Welcome
April is an EGG-citing month here at Roko… (Sorry could not resist) and there is plenty for you and your friends to get involved in this Easter. We will again be donating eggs to those who require some additional Easter cheer. Last year we were able to deliver 76 chocolate Eggs from your kind donations to the QA Hospital Children’s Ward and at the same time supported those members who wanted to join a friend by discounting the joining fee to help fund their Egg purchases.
Back by popular demand we will also be running our long weekender pass over the Easter break 14th to the 17th April – this pass allows you to bring in a guest for any 3 days for just £12. Please ask a member of the membership team to book your pass or book on-line here.
Have a great Easter
