Christmas came early for members of Mosslands Drive Allotment Society today, when Father Christmas arrived with a cheque for £9,930 from the ‘Awards for All Lottery Fund’. I was invited to present the treasurer (also dressed as Father Christmas) with the cheque – it’s been a long process for them but they will now be able to go ahead with levelling the ground to build a small parking and community area, which at the moment is a mud bath!
‘Awards for All’ is a lottery grants scheme, funding small, local, community based projects in the UK. If you think your group meets the criteria go to the ‘Need Funding?’ page at the top of my blog.

With members of the committee and allotment holders next to a model of plans for the area. Congratulations to everyone including Alf!
