We need to replace the old shed that we use to store the light frames from January to September. The current shed is about 25 years old , the roof leaks and the walls have a number of holes in them. We want to buy a larger, purpose built shed that could also provide an area that could be used as a workshop for repairs if necessary.
How will your project benefit your local community?
A new shed will protect the frames from rain and sunlight. This
will mean they will be in a better state when we take them out of
storage, will have less damage and , therefore, will save us money on
repairing the rope light which is sometimes damaged during storage. We
would be able to buy a better shed, one that is taller and would allow
us to stack the frames so they do not lean against one another which
also can cause damage by crushing the rope light. It will also improve
access to the frames and could be used as a workshop for repairs.
Please give details of any support you have from your local community
All the village support the lights, which was set up just over 30
years ago. The lights are designed and made in the village and the land
that the shed is on has been given to the Lights Committee by a
resident of the village
How many people will benefit from your project?
All the volunteers who help design, make, put up and take down
the lights will benefit as the ligts will be stored securely and will be
much more accessible if we can get a new, larger, purpose built shed.
Tell us what you intend to spend the money on.
a 20 ft x 10 ft shed
