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.
