Funds Needed for Skateboard Park - Can the Co-Op Party help? Can you help?

Had a chat with Jenny this week at the Wyndham Park Cafe and she is desperately seeking funds for the skateboard park. Despite its popularity with young people the Wyndham Park Skateboard Park has received no funding from the council for maintenance etc.

Jenny has kindly taken on the task of keeping it going. If you can make any donations please visit Jenny at her cafe in the park. No doubt she would be delighted to hear from you. In the meanwhile I am investigating funding sources with SKDC and we are looking at applying for a grant from the Lincolnshire Co-Operative Party 150th Year fund. Deadline for applications is 1 July and although there is a £500k pot there are a lot of Lincolnshire organisations short of funds this year and already a high number of applications have been received.

If you have a project needing help let me know. Please note you MUST send your form (ideally electronically) through me because I need to get the appropriate Lincolnshire Co-Op Party member numbers for you. Grantham is not (despite our location) in the catchment area for Lincolnshire Co-op Party, but they have kindly agreed to support any applications I forward as a Labour Co-Operative Party councillor.
