Update on our fund-raising campaign

Dear supporters,

Thanks to all of your generous donations to our campaign to defend Paradise, both on Just Giving and directly into our Metro bank account, in a very short time we have raised over £20,000 to help fight the Appeal.  The members of the Friends Committee really appreciate your generosity and are very grateful to all of you who have donated money and also used social media and personal contacts to tell people about the challenge we are facing. We have now closed the Just Giving page.

Some of the money raised has already been spent and some will be invoiced soon: a combination of Barrister’s fees, surveys and reports on lighting impacts, bats, and drainage, as well as expert-witness fees and reports. 

The Public Inquiry has now finished and we await the Planning Inspector’s decision. We will update this website as soon as we hear anything but don’t expect any news for several months.

Thank you very much again for your generous support.

Pam Gatrell, Chair, Friends of Paradise

Thank you.

Pam
