Thank you - You gave us time!

We want to say a huge thank you to every single person who signed the petition, wrote a letter, or spoke up for us over the past few weeks. So many of you took time out of your own lives to help, and it has made a real difference.

Following the recent planning committee meeting, and thanks to the volume of support shown, we have now been given more time. The deadline has been extended to the end of March. For us, that breathing space is everything. It has taken a huge amount of immediate pressure off and given us a chance to regroup instead of being pushed into an impossible situation.

What has meant the most is the effort people have gone to. Writing letters, sharing your experiences, and adding your voice is not a small thing. We have read your messages, and we know how much thought and care has gone into them.

This charity has always been built on people stepping forward when it counts, and over the last few days and weeks, you have shown exactly that. Whether you signed, wrote, shared or supported in any way, you have played a part in getting us this far.

We still have challenges ahead, but right now we just want to say thank you. What you have already done has made a real difference, and we will not forget it.

If you would like to continue supporting us as we work through the next stage, our fundraiser is here: https://gofund.me/bb9e79060

Whether you choose to help again or have already done your part, please know it is genuinely appreciated and has helped us get this far.
