Story
Our first Just Giving fundraiser raised £682 which purchased six reconditioned benches and one picnic table. These will be placed shortly around our site for visitors to enjoy. We are now raising further funds to purchase more picnic tables for our new picnic area and children's garden
We will be purchasing refurbished items or furniture made from re-purposed timber from local charity Widemarsh Ventures in Hereford who have already supplied us with a new community notice board and two sheds for our children's garden.
Each item is refurbished or carpentered individually by the brilliant team at Widemarsh Ventures who support vulnerable adults with learning disabilitites to learn woodworking skills in their fully fitted commercial workshop on the Three Elms Estate.
Each picnic bench costs around £180, so this fund aims to purchase four. We hope to continue fundraising to eventually purchase enough benches and picnic tables for the entire 19 acre site.
