THANK YOU BOVEY TRACEY!
Donations for the Bovey Paradiso project to convert the King of Prussia into an art centre with a cinema theatre and café bar restaurant have now closed.
249 people have donated a total of £28,822. With the 322 people who have bought shares totalling £464,100, it means we have raised a staggering £492,919! 513 people in our community are sharing in this community project.
The funds raised represent over 56% of what is needed to complete the project, but we now we are working hard applying for grants for the rest of the funds needed.
In the coming days we expect to be starting work on demolishing the out-buildings at the King of Prussia. Come and see us at the Green Man Festival and see how we are getting on!
