Hello All,

Welcome to my second post on the members forum. For those who I haven't met, I'm Oli and I work in the fundraising dept, writing applications to trusts trying to pry their money from their hands. I have been with NRAS for 7 months now and am thoroughly enjoying it!

Well why am I posting? Basically I need your help:

NRAS is looking to increase its presence in its local area of Maidenhead by holding an information day promoting NRAS and our services to the local people. We are hoping that from this information day we will create a new group called the Windsor and Maidenhead NRAS Support Group. This group will cater for the estimated 1,000 people living with RA in the Windsor and Maidenhead area. We have applied for the a grant via the NatWest Community Force Project and your votes are needed help us secure this funding.

Please follow this link: Community Force NRAS, register and vote for our project. With your help we will increase our presence locally and help more people living with Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Many thanks all and happy voting!!!

Hi again,

Just a reminder if I wasn't clear, you DO NOT need to be in the Windsor and Maidenhead Area to vote. You can be anywhere in the country and still support NRAS! Please please vote, by following the link NRAS Community Force and do perserve. I do understand that registering and voting is anything but easy, but your vote could be the tipping point to help us secure £6,000 and a worthy addition to our groups program.

Happy voting and thanks for the support!!

When I clicked on the "vote now" it just went onto a page for finding the different projects and couldn't find the NRAS one. I had registered and clicked on the confirmation e-mail and then logged in. Gave up in the end.

I've just had another go. I click on the vote now and it takes me to a page to find the project, but when I put NRAS Maidenhead in the search thing it doesn't come up with it, says O found! Confused

Not sure why it isn't working properly!

Once you've logged in it should come up with

1.your profile page showing 3 remaining votes
2.click on "find a project to vote for"
3.choose "by project name" and type nras in the box
4. a map should appear with a flag on it
5. click on the flag and it will open the "nras" info box
6. if you then click read more it should give you the option to vote.

I've just used one of my remaining votes for our local hospice and it worked okay!

NRAS now have 120 votes ThumpUp

Good luck!

Must have tried 20 times. Now it has locked me out. I am doing everything I am supposed to do. I have used computers for many years and know what I am doing but it doesn't like me so I am giving up now. Sorry!
