At long last we can announce that Eadons Fields is now ours👍🩷After a very long and complex operation all the boxes have been ticked, money raised and now the land is paid for. Many thanks to our friends who have helped us with finances.Manchester 17, Mansfield Maun and East Midland Centre have provided loans to make this possible.A number of private people have bought shares in the land as well as Sheffield and Hallamshire who has put most of its funds in as well. Also Robin Luccombe for his sponsorship.And finally all those who made donations to the fund. Small or large it has all gone together to get this over the line. You all know who you are👍💓Finally those who put in to the crowdfunding. Any commitments under that will be sorted out as and when we move forward. Many thanks.We are still open to anyone interested in being a shareholder. At present insurance is being organised for the land but once that is in place we will arrange a payment system for practice at the venue. Watch this space👍We have a lot of loans to pay back to our lenders so please don't ask or expect free access😃🙈. We need every penny to meet our commitments.More news as it happens. Thanks to all. ...
