Northampton Communlty Shed8 Chairs Address Ladies and Gentlemen............we started the year on quite a high note, we had an enthusiastic group of Trustees keen to progress the Shed and to build on the foundations that had been laid since 2016. Linzi from her position as Secretary organised an exercise to properly set out our ambitions, a visioning exercise from which we came away with a clear view of what we wanted to do and how we should structure the Charity to accommodate that vision. There was no doubt that the focus should be on larger premises to create space for more members. In March time we received an email from the Barratt Foundation asking for our account details as they wished to give us some money, we very nearly missed this as we thought it might be a scam. Luckily, we contacted Lorraine Burr from the Foundation, which is the Barratt and David Wilson Homes Community Fund, and got our bank details to her. Its unusual and very pleasing as the money £1500 is dropped straight into your bank account without any application forms or ongoing outcomes to be measured and assessed. Just last Friday Adam Jeffs from the David Wilson Homes Promotional Office visited the Shed to take some photographs of members receiving the cheque. So, thanks to those who got involved and watch out in the press for your pictures.
