Trust Council Minutes for October 2014

The Trust Council met on 7th October 2014.  Trustees reviewed and approved  a draft of the new look Butty produced by the editorial team of Jane & David Inight.

Crofton Chairman Peter Turvey reported on the response of the Heritage Lottery Fund to the pre-application the project team had submitted.  It was becoming clear that we would need a more diverse fund raising strategy to realise the Trust's ambitions for Crofton.  There was certainly scope for an HLF bid but it would not cover the entire project.

The minutes of the meeting are available HERE
