Last September Winterbourne Medieval Barn won Heritage Lottery Funding and they are now working hard to raise the required matched funding.
They've been chosen to take part in a "double your donation" project, which means that for every £1 you give, NESTA and HLF will match it. The fund is only available until 24th July. So take at look at www.crowdfunder.co.uk/winterbourne
- and share the link with your friends.

Winterbourne Medieval Barn - drama to commemorate the Battle of the Somme, Sunday 18 September
'A Day’s Work' - Sunday 18 September, 3pm
A Musical drama to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme. Using original songs, spoken verse, monologue and dialogue, ‘A Day’s Work’ tells the story of a group of farm labourers, members of a mummers’ team, who join up, or refuse to join up, and meet finally on the first day of The Somme. The show examines war, love, courage and cowardice through this new script and songs with a cast of highly respected performers.
Refreshments will be available to purchase during the interval. Visitors are welcome to bring a picnic to eat in the grounds from 12.30pm. Tickets cost £15 adults, £5 for under 16s, and are available from Daisy's Cafe, Flaxpits Lane, Winterbourne, or on the gate subject to availability.
More information is available on their website www.winterbournebarn.org.uk
