HCA FUND RAISING 2019

OVERVIEW

TARGET – £13,000

RAISED TO DATE – £11,500+

The 2018 AGM endorsed our plans to conduct a Heritage Conservation Assessment and agreed that we mount a significant fund raising campaign to fund the professional support required.  This is estimated at £13,000.   Currently we have only a further £1500 to raise in order to meet our target.

What Do We Plan:

Produce a video of Our Pyrford Heritage and offer copies for sale to Forum Members

The video was produced and was launched to great aclaim at the AGM at the end of November 2019.  Members have since produced a trailer to show on the web site and have offered copies for sale.  We are all very pleased with the standard to which it has been produced by Tim Matthews and Cliff Bolton and advise that no household should be without one!!!!  So folks, please contact Cliff by email at cliff.bolton@gmail.com to order your copy and arrange for delivery later in March 2020.

The next event will be a stand at Pyrford & Wisley Flower Show – 13 July 2019:

English Wine Tasting –  22 June – CANCELLED

Emily Lambert, a sommelier trained at The Ritz, will be helping us and the details are currently being finalised.  We will start at 7pm with welcoming glass of something bubbly and at 7:30 we will sit for the tasting.  Emily will introduce us to 5 locally produced wines and we will serve appropriate canapes to complement the wines.  There will be a break for a raffle and, we are hoping to provide the opportunity to buy bottles from 2 or 3 local growers.  The evening will conclude with a sobering cup of tea/coffee before making our way home.
