Crowdfunding Campaign for Tisbury Croquet club
We have raised £25,000 in the last year to repair and restore the building and the lawn and we just need to the final £5,000 to complete the project. We urgently need support as the campaign has only another four weeks to run. We are doing well so far with over 40% raised but we would very much like to reach our target.

Bonfires
Whilst we are all aware of our rural setting and that bonfires are part of country life, respiratory illness in all generations is a growing trend, with bonfires causing exacerbation in diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructed airways.
Please could we ask that if you’re considering having a bonfire, you resist lighting it until after dusk when most residents will have closed windows and doors.
Your kind cooperation would be gratefully appreciated.

Fovant ORGAN APPEAL
at St George's Church, Fovant
At last! The work on the organ is beginning after such a long wait, during which it has enjoyed making some very peculiar noises and occasionally having a mind of its own. We think there has only been one overhaul in all the 98 years it has been working so it will be great not to have organists politely indicating that we should be doing something about it!
Although many people and organisations have been very generous and we are enormously grateful, we shall still have to make up the final part of the funds needed from savings, so if anyone feels they would like to contribute “PCC Fovant” would welcome a contribution.
Account No: 02981591, sort code 30-97-41, reference Organ Fund.
There is something pretty special about the sound of a good organ in a Church so let us look forward to that day when all is back together again without the dust and bat droppings!
