The RAF Harrowbeer 1940s Weekend is a free event for all to attend. It is held on ‘common land’ on Dartmoor which means even if we could, we are not able to charge for parking or entrance. Believe it or not, the event costs around £4,000 to put on and we rely entirely on sponsorship and donations from visitors to meet these costs. You can help by making a donation to our funds now, using one of the ways listed below. Any amount can be donated, small or large, so please donate now! As a guide, similar 1940s events where an admission charge is made, the cost is anywhere between £5 – £10 per person.

Donations:

You can make a donation by any of the following:

1) BACS to Natwest Bank: Sort Code; 60-21-49 Acc No. 59619996 using your surname as the reference. Some banks now ask for the full account name and this is actually: “RAF Harrowbeer 1940s Event Planning Group”

2) Via Paypal. Click on the link here: Paypal Payment/Donation

3) You can of course send us a cheque made out to: ‘RAF Harrowbeer 1940s Event’. This should be posted to: The Treasurer, 30 Modyford Walk, Buckland Monachorum, Yelverton, PL20 7NQ

You can email: fund-raising@rafharrowbeer1940s.co.uk for further information about sponsorship and donations.

Thank you in advance for your support.

We would like to thank all the businesses that support our event with sponsorship as it helps to pay for all the necessary attractions etc that are needed to put on the 1940s Weekend.

Become a sponsor for the event.

We are now looking for Business sponsors for our 2024 event. In return for a generous donation, we will put a link to your company website on our sponsorship and event pages on this website, allow you to bring a stand or display to the event, and/or provide us with a banner or similar that we can place at a suitable position around the event site. Because our event is completely free for the public to attend, we can’t accurately count our visitor numbers but we estimate that we get around 1,000 visitors on site at any one time. Many arrive and then leave, but come back later having told friends and family!

If you would like to sponsor the event, please contact us using the email address above.

Many thanks.
