Not surprised this is good for.. learning difficulties. I've heard drama can be great for ex-offenders, wayward boys etc. Got my vote.

Thank you Andy - only 12 days left now, I've just been on site myself and found it experiencing problems!!!! It's a convoluted system for voting to start with, without it knocking you off!!!

No it got to about half an hour before the end and we'd slipped into 4th place by a couple of votes, I tried to get people from another client to vote and managed about 4 more votes before the site crashed. We should find out tomorrow if we have won - we needed to be in the top three for our region to win. I'll post when we find out.

Hi and a big thank you to all who persevered with the torturous voting procedure for the Nat West Community Fund and voted for us.  The embargo has been lifted today and I can tell you that we managed to come 3rd in our region and have been awarded £6000.

Take a bow and congratulate yourselves on helping us to fund this project continuing our links with the few remaining special schools to enable their pupils to experience the wonderful world of film making and participation in the arts.

Thank you all once again.

Sheila

We did nothing but sign our names to something. The congratulations should be all yours for managing to motivate the site into action Sheila.

Well done for getting the result that you wanted.

kindest regards,

Shaun.
