2023 & 2024 have been incredibly successful years for FBST’s fundraising efforts. Thanks mainly to the hard work of our former secretary (now Treasurer!), Lara Brooks, the finances of our residents association have been transformed. Thanks to the generosity of the Co-op Community Fund, the Garden Trust, the Pebble Trust, the Safer in Sussex Community Fund and the Neighbourhood Watch Community Grants Fund, a total of over £14000 has been raised. Much of the money raised has been to help us continue the transformation of our gardens, but we have also raised monies for other projects. We have funding for a community noticeboard, which we hope to have installed in the coming months and are now looking towards funding for other pressing issues such as the railings. Further details on this and other matters can be found in the Chair’s annual report (link below) presented at our recent AGM.
