100 Club

OPRA has financially supported the creation of the new children’s play area in Combwich and provided set-up funding and grants to other local organisations. The annual firework display, the senior citizens Christmas Dinner, Christmas trees for Combwich and Steart, an Easter Egg Hunt for the children of the parish, monthly walks and many other activities, including the maintenance of the common have only been possible because of the support of OPRA.

Our funds come mainly from the members of the 100 Club who contribute a £1 a week and participate in the weekly draw, made monthly at the Friday Coffee morning in the village hall. This is your local charity where all the money raised (after the prize money is paid out) is spent in the community and in support of local people and organisations.

The winning numbers are posted on this website, and also displayed in the Post Office. October 2024 Winners

The winners of the 2023 Christmas Draw are, 1st Prize – Linda Ingram, 2nd Prize – Elizabeth and 3rd Prize – Avril and Mel Fooks

Half the money raised is returned to members in prize money the rest is used to support community activities.

By joining the 100 Club you not only have a chance of winning a cash prize, you will automatically become a member of OPRA and eligible to have a say in how the money raised is spent.

A new village Welcome Feature was installed in early 2011 by the Parish Council with the help of OPRA .

Please help make our village a better place!
