The target date for our Lottery bid is the
first of December and we are including summaries of the various aspects of our
“Heritage Package” in this. One strand of this will be the development of a
programme of re-enactments of the history of the area.
We have been looking at the work needed to install
lighting in the belfry and have the approval to go ahead with this.
A huge thank you to
everyone for their support during 2016 with donations, contributions to our
collection boxes and help and support at our events. Our
fund plus pledges has now reached over £26,900 with our collection boxes and events raising over
£4,800 so far this year. We’ve had a Quiz Night, Mardling evening, Village Fete
and Beetle Drive and our Christmas Bingo evening on
Saturday 3rd December is still to come. Please do come and join us.
Watch out for several fund-raising events
being planned for 2017.
