Appeal for funding for Blacksmith’s Tea and Coffee shop

The Burwash Community Interest Company is looking for top-up funding to ensure the success of Blacksmith’s tea and coffee shop on Burwash High Street.

The CIC says support from the community has been brilliant so far but a further £10,000 is needed to complete the fit-out of the former Freeman Forman estate agency.

The cash is needed by the middle of March to make the project a reality.

”No donation is too small or too large,” the CIC says. “£10 will buy a teapot, £20 will buy a chair, £150 will buy a worktop, £500 will buy the lighting.”

To make a donation, you can pay directly into the CIC bank account. The details are:

Account name: Burwash CIC

Account number: 90028631

Sort code: 82-11-07

Or contact the CIC on 01435 882918 or email burwashcic@btinternet.com
