AVIVA COMMUNITY FUND UPDATE

Many thanks for the readers that kindly took the trouble to vote for us.
Sadly, WALKING ON WATER the project submitted by Henleaze Book will not receive funding for an historical information board in Old Quarry Park. We did not receive enough notes to reach the final of the AVIVA COMMUNITY FUND.
However we are hoping now that a local organisation will come forward to sponsor this board. If you do know of a possible candidate or require more information please email us at henleazebook@gmail.com
