Amazing news from Awards for All, and an emergency meeting
Today I received a letter from Awards for All, the lottery funding group, confirming that our grant application had been successful and we would be receiving the full £10,000 grant for the Brudenell PA fund.
The Lottery application was a real stress for us, especially for myself and Jonny who spent several afternoons writing and re-writing the details in the form until we got them exactly right. We, Shumsky, Stu and Drew spent several long meetings agonising over the details and we are all really amazed and overwhelmed that our hard work paid off.
On behalf of the Ents Committee I’d like to thank Cllr James Monaghan for the wonderful reference, Heather from HP Source for application advice, and Jamie and Duncan from Oblong for putting us onto the idea in the first place.
The money will be paid into the Ents Committee account on Christmas Day, at which point we will buy Moz and Stu’s PA and go shopping for additional equipment.
There will be an emergency celebratory meeting tonight at 6pm in the Lounge bar!
