Thank you for visiting the Friends Donations page.  

Donations Overview

Following the submission of the Phase 2 application to the Heritage Lottery Fund on 7th September 2007, the Friends of the Monument, in conjunction with the Ulverston Town Council Monument Working Group are tasked with raising  £220,000 by end 2008 as our required matched funding contribution towards securing the Phase 2 Heritage Lottery  grant.

Cash Donation
To ensure that we re-open the Monument to the public at the earliest opportunity, it is necessary for us to reach our matched funding targets by the end of 2008 / early 2009, when the renovation work starts in earnest.  So please help us if you can.  All donations will go directly into the Sir John Barrow Monument / Ulverston Town Council Monument Account.
Hours Worked in Kind by the Friends
Additional to the cash donations, the Heritage Lottery Fund places a value on the hours of work undertaken on the Monument project by the Friends & other volunteers and allows us to include this calculated sum in our Phase 2 submission for the final amount of financial support required to complete the Monument restoration.  However, this will only apply from the start of the Phase 2 of the restoration project in April 2008.
The voluntary work covers attendance at meetings, events, administration, professional advice, etc. after 1st April 2008
The Friends of the Monument would like to offer a very sincere "thank you" for your valued donations. 
Please don't forget to "tell a friend", possibly by using the "E-Mail a Friend" button.
