The Patron’s Scheme
Thank you first of all to those who have become Patrons of our Common Riding over the last 12 months. These contributions help offset some of the c.£100,000 per annum that it costs to run the Common Riding.
Last year was a trial to see if it worked, and following on from the successful inaugural year we are now in a position to offer something in return to those who chose to become a patron of Hawick Common Riding. This year, patrons will receive a new patrons badge and there are also plans for a patron’s dinner in October 2024, similar to the one held in 2014, details below. It is not too late to become a patron, and if you are interested you can email commonriding@btinternet.com requesting a form for completion. Minimum financial contributions are set at £10 per year.
