Stockwell Christmas Tree Crowdfunder – We made it!
THANK YOU so much to everyone who has supported our Crowdfunding campaign to have a Christmas tree in the centre of Stockwell this year!
It’s been a very tough year and over the last month we have been working with the health and community groups involved in ‘Thriving Stockwell’ and you, the public, to raise the money to bring the Christmas Tree back and celebrate the fantastic community spirit in our neighbourhood. Yesterday, we made our target of raising £1700 from the crowdfunder.
We are also very grateful to St Stephen’s Charity for giving us a grant of £500 and to Lambeth Early Action Partnership (LEAP) for pledging £300 towards the additional project cost of £2320. All the remaining funding has been secured from local people and groups via the crowdfunding campaign – a fantastic demonstration of what we can all do together!
We intend to hold a lighting up ceremony and celebration – subject to Covid restrictions – and will get back to you soon with details.
Thanks again!
