All this has been made possible by a major grant of *£30000 from Biffaward to supplement funds already awarded by the District and Parish Councils*, together with the Redbourn Playing Fields Trust 4 year fund raising efforts and a number of donations.Further grants came from Redbourn Care Group(for disabled access), the 948 Sports Foundation and benches from the B&Q Good Neighbour Scheme.The balance of funding is secured by an unqualified interest free loan from a very generous benefactor.Further donations(especially with Gift Aid) and local businesses with sponsorships will help the Trust clear this debt and move on to the next project?? If you can help, please contact Pat Schofield on 01582 793096
