Highlights included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>We now have a functioning Bank Account.<\/li><li>We have our first grant (see above).<\/li><li>We are making progress on the lease for the land, with some good news in the next few weeks hopefully.<\/li><li>It has been confirmed that we will need planning permission for our shed, so we will have to plan, and budget, for this.<\/li><li>We discussed options for the building ranging from building one from shipping containers (to be clad probably in wood to make it nicer to look at), recycled portacabins or a new build. It was agreed that we would do more work on the costings and plus and minuses of each before presenting our ideas and recommendations at a future open meeting.<\/li><li>We are looking for opportunities at local events to advertise that we exist and to get more people engaged, so if you know of any opportunities please let us know.<\/li><li>We are looking at ways that people can donate and be supporters of our shed. Look for further announcements over the coming months.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So things are becoming clearer, but still lots to do before we can start building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Easter Monday we will be at the St James&#8217; Park Easter EggsTravOrganZa from 12-4pm. Why not come along and meet a few of us?
