A big thank you to all who organised, volunteered, donated and bought stuff at our first surplus sale. It raised a massive £360! Which when added to the profit from the stall at Funday means we have raised just over £600 pounds from those 2 events alone.
A photo of the opening got into the Lancaster Guardian with a small article which helped to provide some publicity for organisations that gave us the funds to complete the extension. However, somehow from my notes to the press release to the final article two of our funders got left out...both the Galbraith Trust and The Lancaster City Council Allotment fund also contributed significantly as well as those mentioned in the article.
The surplus sale was so successful we think it may become an annual event, we'd welcome suggestions for improvements and additions.
