Story

We want to return the Dispensary and Hermitage to its rightful owners - the people of Pontefract and preserve the Dispensary and Hermitage as an important part of the town’s heritage. We plan to renovate the Dispensary and open it up, along with the hermitage for all to enjoy and develop the site in such a way that it will benefit the local community by creating employment opportunities and space for commercial and business development

Since we released the video online yesterday there's been tremendous interest. We need that translated into money so we can get moving with the project.
