Project development committee June 2006 update

Building for the future

There is a limited amount to report this month, as much of the "work in progress" sits with our architect, Jeremy Bell, who is preparing the application to the Listed Buildings Advisory Committee for presentation to their June meeting.

Funds stood at £128,000, at the end of April and we will be launching the new Special Envelope Scheme from the beginning of July. We have ordered 70 packs of envelopes in the earnest hope that all of us who voted to proceed with the project and all of us who will benefit from the re-development will feel ready and willing to commit an additional contribution to the funding of the project according to our means. You can, alternatively, contribute by monthly Standing Order Mandate and we have a facility on our Accounts package to split the amount you are contributing between normal offertory and the Revive project. We simply need your instructions on the split of your increased contributions. However you choose to pay, please remember to Gift Aid your contributions, if you are a UK taxpayer. Please see Tony Hatton for details.

Finally, a small team of "serially deranged" Scots are planning a St Andrews Night Dinner and Dance for late November 2006 (date to be confirmed in the July Recorder). We hope that everyone will support the event and invite their friends along. Based on around 100 people attending we would hope to raise around £1000 for the project.

Sincere thanks to everyone for their magnificent support to date.
