The Whitelands Project’s next big project, as explained by Fritha West, Woodland Manager.
We will be staying true to his vision and his design for it. The build will be made of sustainable and/or recycled materials, with rainwater collection and (eventually) solar power. It will provide a much needed base for working in the wood throughout the year.
As was always the case for Dad, I am now facing the challenge of funding! I have been in awe of all the amazing people who have offered to help us in any way they can, and I hope you won’t mind helping me now. I am applying for a range of grants that have the potential to get this project up and going again, and for these I need to provide evidence of the local community’s support- from well wishers to future customers.
So… if you think your business would benefit from the Whitelands Barn (for forestry work access/storage/security , for woodland workshops, anything forestry based) or if you think that the community would benefit from the types of services (including increasing opportunity for environmental education, encouraging connection with nature, expanding forestry work etc.)
and revenue it could provide, please could you put it in a letter and address it to:Miss Fritha West

EDIT: Written letters are preferable and any statement of support must include your address and contact details. The deadline for this application has been extended but I need to get all letters in by the 18th November.
