FUNDING
With the shelter to be installed shortly, we will then enter the final stage of the development, which is to install two items of play equipment aimed at toddlers and younger children, plus some planting.
We've run out of organisations to approach, such as the National Lottery who sponsored the shelter. As a resident would you be willing to make a contribution towards the part cost as a legacy or by sponsoring the purchase of a complete item of equipment? We would also welcome sponsorship from a local business. The two pieces of new equipment we are considering are priced at around £900.00 and £8,000.00.
Offers of support to Simon Foster or Paul Wilson.
Many thanks - 12th May 2016
