Thank you to all who supported and helped
at our very successful Village Fete, allowing us to raise over £3,300 towards
the Bells Appeal. We were
encouraged by the kind comments both on the day and since of how much people
enjoyed a traditional Village Fete.
The Charmborough Ring was also a big success,
with a full peal of bells ringing thanks to local bell ringers, many people
trying their hand at ringing the bells and several showing an interest in
following this up.
Planning will start soon on a Beetle Drive
and Christmas Bingo for later this year.
Meanwhile we are working on our application
to the National Lottery. A second application for the fabric of the church will
be made at a later date. Both applications need to include how we can increase
the use of the Bells and Church not just for fund raising but as part of
village life. Do you have ideas on how we could do this? If so, please contact
us at bbbells.appeal@gmail.com with your thoughts.
Thank you all for your continued support
and donations. Following the Village Fete, our total fund plus pledges has now
reached over £23,000.
