Just £9,000 to go

As of yesterday the total raised and pledged for the appeal stood at £161,000. That meant we had just £9,000 to go before we reached £170,000, the figure at which Colchester Borough Council said they will step in and grant £30,000 to get us to the original £200,000 target.

So, £9,000 in five days. Can we do it? Thank you to everyone who has given already. We’re hoping that enough people will now chose to come forward and make a gift to get us to the target.

Donations and pledged income had reached £40,000 on Saturday but by Monday they had jumped to £51,000. We’re aware of other likely donations due to come in shortly, but they are not included in this total for the first three weeks of the campaign. Thank you to everyone who has given so far, and to everyone else, do consider helping to increase this total by making a donation.

While we are focusing on securing larger donations, given the urgent deadline for this appeal, we are certainly keen to receive donations of any size as well. Indeed, we’ve already received many smaller donations both online and by cheque: as you can see, they are adding up to an impressive figure that demonstrates just how many people in Colchester and much further afield are concerned to make the most of the Roman Circus.
