£235,000

No, I haven't got a book deal to end all book deals, (I wish), but I (and two other team members of our village hall committee) have got a BIG Lotter Fund Grant for our Village Hall. We've been workng on this for the last ten years (and the last three years really seriously) and at last all out hard work has come good.

We start in September on our quarter million pound project to renovate and extend Birdsedge Village Hall

How cool is that!

We still have £50,000 to raise in goods or in kind but we're already part way towards this. If anyone wants to contribute cash or services, just yell.

We've been running round with big silly grins on our faces! They actually told us last week but we couldn't release the news until Tuesday, so we've been sitting on our hands for a week.

That is so incredibly cool. I hope I get a chance to see it some day.
