School Funding In Place
Funding for the School Restoration Project is now, finally, in place.
The
Heritage Lottery Fund is providing £858,500 towards restoration
of the School and initial running costs.
Yorkshire Forward, the Regional Development Agency, has awarded £650,000
as part of the wider South Humber Bank Heritage Tourism Project. Part
of this funding is for refurbishment of the former canteen
annex .
English Heritage has contributed £82,000 to help with restoration
of the historic fabric, and has helped the architect with conservation
aspects of the final specification.
"it
is a really great example of a community-led project, where
members of the community really care about their
heritage” Simon Thurley, Chief Executive, English Heritage |
