Supporting Mainly Local Charitable Organisations
Donations Made by The Aylsham Agricultural Show Association Limited (AASA)
The AASA (Aylsham Show) donates surplus proceeds to mainly local charitable causes, and other charitable institutions, making a real difference in the local community. Subject to the Show being able to do so, this would normally take place at a Presentation Evening in January each year before the AGM.
Well over £1 million pounds has been donated by The Aylsham Agricultural Show Association Limited since the Show began in 1946.
At the 2025 Presentation Evening, Chairman: Robert Mitchell welcomed everybody, and retiring President: Nigel Savory summed up by saying what an honour it had been for him to present these monies to so many worthy charitable organisations, and how humbled all those present were to hear the many great stories of what is going on within Aylsham and the surrounding areas, and how so many vulnerable people of all ages are being helped by so many caring volunteers. Nigel strongly emphasised how the Aylsham Show and all the charitable organisations represented, were very much part of a strong family bond within the local communities.
David Hitcham – Event Co-ordinator – said that the 56 Beneficiaries of the 2024 Show proceeds, and who received £22000 in total in January 2025, are listed below in alphabetical order. Those marked * have either helped on Show Day in some way, have connections with the Show, or raised their own monies. Many thanks to Ian Gravenell who took the photos at the end of these presentations.
