This year all the money raised from the raffles will be donated to the Carver Barracks Injured Soldiers Charity Fund.
Club President John Martin said: "Whenever possible we try to support local causes, but this year we also wanted to recognise the bravery of our troops fighting in Afghanistan.
"By supporting the local Carver Barracks Charity Fund we are able to achieve both of these objectives."

Mr Martin added: "We are delighted that these landlords are supporting the raffles, and also to Traynor Building Services who have sponsored the cost of the eggs. This means that every penny raised will go straight to this most deserving charity."
