We are pleased to announce that the Newhaven Community Garden project surpassed it’s £3,300 target by it’s closing date of 14 May. The final total for the project including some grant funding secured by the organisations was a fantastic £4,009.

This is just over 120% of their original funding goal and is fantastic news for the regeneration of the space under the Armada Stone on Newhaven Main Street.

The extra funds raised will allow the Newhaven Community Garden group to further develop their ideas for the garden.

So on behalf of the group and MyParkScotland we would like to say a big thankyou to everybody that donated and helped in turning the community garden in to reality.

The group has a big gardening day planned for 30th May, if you would like to get involved keep an eye on the Newhaven Community Garden Facebook Page to keep up to date with all the gardens developments.

So thanks again to everyone who donated. You can still donate to the Newhaven Community Garden project by TEXT. Just text the project code (NEWH52) plus an amount to 70070 – for example: ‘NEWH52 £5‘ to donate £5. If you wish to Gift Aid your donation please REPLY to the Gift Aid text.
