Bletchley Park is a hugely important heritage
site, famous for being the home of code breakers like Alan Turing and
Jerry Roberts during WWII, as well as being the birthplace of the modern
programmable electronic computer in 1943.
The Heritage Lottery Fund have offered a
grant of £4.1 million, which would transform Bletchley Park’s fortunes
and ensure its future as a world-leading heritage site that will
inspire future generations of British innovators.
But to secure this money, they must raise
£1.5 million through private donations, tickets sales and other
sources. 1/3rd of that money has been raised so far, and another £1
million must be found in the next year and a bit.
To say thank you to the men and women of
Bletchley Park for all they did for us, with no recognition until very
recently, people like you are very generously donating one day’s pay on
September 16th directly to the Bletchley Park Trust.
We know times are hard, but we really
hope you will join us in pledging your pay for Sept 16th to Bletchley
Park.
To show our gratitude for all the work
they did for us, let’s spend one day working
for them.
Every £1 you donate can unlock £4 of
lottery money, and with Gift Aid, your generous help will go even
further.
