Transforming local communities and environments
Funding was something else; 'A' star haha hahahaha. But we made it and now the next ambition. Stage one of the campaign set out in our manifest, notice, announcement call it what you will was to communicate our objectives to all the residents on the estate. So the campaign leaflet is being completed and should be getting posted next week. We are also busy recruiting volunteers and, of course, continuing the composting in the basement we occupy and which is receiving a freshening-up. Photo's to follow.
Whoop, 30 people have pledged since fundraising began!
On Saturday we had our stall at the market and invited the many children there enjoying the bouncy castle and other attractions. At first the drawing competition was not drawing that many then ... all of a sudden everyone wanted to join in and not entirely because of the prizes. There were some imaginative entries and the prizes were awarded by Mehmet Saffet Chair of TRA and there were plenty of delighted recipients!
Secured a number of pledges from residents and market stall-holders with a little nudge in the form of plums - not illustrated! Mushrooms are a side effect when compost is left to rest; not necessarily a bad thing in themselves but ... meanwhile tweeting and wrestling with facebook where I met an old acquaintance; another welcome side effect!
