Westgate Community Trust are delighted to have won a Natwest CommunityForce award worth £6,000, thanks to 384 people voting for the Trust. Thanks to all of you who voted (or tried to vote!), who spread the word and who asked all your friends to vote. These funds are coming at a crucial time, just when we are starting to have to pay legal and other professional fees relating to taking over the Hall and applying for planning permission for its refurbishment.

It will make a huge difference to be able to meet these costs from the award, as it means that the funds that we have been able to raise through events, memberships and donation can be used towards the costs of refurbishment and to bridge the lack of revenue while the Hall is closed for refurbishment.
