£50,000 donation keeps Phase 1&2 plans on track
Big Build supporters have been bowled over by the extraordinary generosity of the John Armitage Charitable Trust, which has donated an astonishing £50,000 to the campaign. The Trust is a charitable foundation committed to "helping people help themselves". Its support for the community-led Big Build will certainly do just that, putting us within touching distance of reaching the target for Phases 1 & 2.
