FoOL Newsletter - October 2021

​

Our crowdfunding campaign ended at 9am today with a final total of £60,711 and 876 unqiue supporters. We hit our £53,000 target five days before the end of the campaign and honed in on our ‘stretch’ target of £65,000. The extra funds raised shall provide a larger contingency fund (if required) or go towards future phases of the project with the aim of bringing the lido to fruition sooner.

​

In other news, we secured two grants this month - both from long-standing supporters. We are so grateful to Otley BID for its commitment of £5,000 and, similarly, to Otley Chamber of Trade for £1,000. Additionally, both shall continue to provide on-going help, advice and support. Read the full October newsletter here.
