They are inching towards the target. What no one seems to know is if the target is not met at the end of this month does it all stop dead or struggle on until the money is used up.
Good weekend boost but we are still well short of target!:
Click here to donateFrom our newsletter on Friday, we have received just over £15,000 to the appeal as at close of business last night. This is a significant leap in recent trends, but even if that level of support were to continue, the remaining 14 days to our deadline will still see us a good £100,000 short of the finance required to move positively ahead with the 2011 Display season.
Trust Business Development Director Michael Trotter adds, “It would be catastrophic to the whole team and of course our loyal supporters if the project failed at this point. We have so many exciting possibilities in front of us, but we simply do not have the cash flow to remain viable for much longer. Despite the usual excellent support from the public in what are very hard times, our appeal has not yet resulted in securing our immediate future.”
“Right now, I’m looking at finding someone or one company who might wish to be our ‘White Knight’ offering us sponsorship of at least £150,000 that will make the difference between now and mid season, but as of this minute, that possibility looks highly unlikely.” Michael went on to add; “I’m confident that our future business plan based here at Robin Hood can bring us commercial success, greatly underpinning the overheads of this project, but we just need to buy a little more time.”
