Chairman’s Message

The whole of Rye Bonfire are no strangers to hard work and fundraise tirelessly each year to stage Rye Bonfire.  Our costs are rising so please support us by donating coins to our bucket team or directly to the Bonfire office.

A big thank you to all the agencies who contribute towards making this a safe event, please take notice of our stewards and marshals they are there to help you.  Thank you all for supporting us on the night!

We have the hard working society members to thank for their fund raising efforts with auctions, boot fairs, fishing competitions, clay pigeon shoot, quiz nights, etc. to make this spectacular event;  not forgetting the assistance of members of  neighbouring societies, particularly Robertsbridge and Hastings.

We hope that you will your visit to this year’s event and dig deep into your pockets for all that loose change to feed the collecting buckets.  The Rye Bonfire Society has raised and distributed many thousands of pounds of charity funding for good causes in and around Rye so join in and make this happen.  We need to raise £10,000 a year to stage this spectacular event.

You are welcome to join us as new members to raise funds, dress up and collect or become a marshal – WE NEED YOU!  Especially the youth of Rye.

BE SAFE AND ENJOY BONFIRE NIGHT IN RYE!

Thank you for visiting the web site.
