Following the launch of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Community Fund, Ferryhill Town Council is pleased to announce that it has been able to financially support seven local groups (see below). £1,090 in total has been donated by the Town Council, which has enabled a range of Jubilee themed events to be organised throughout the Town to mark the occasion.
For more information about any of the events supported by the Town Council as part of this initiative please contact the individual groups direct.
Town Mayor, Councillor David Farry said ‘It’s a pleasure to be able to donate funding to local community groups, to help them organise their own celebrations to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. The Town Council is extremely committed to supporting local organisations wherever possible and look forward to working with and supporting even more groups in the future.’
Councillor Joe Quinn, Chair of the Town Council’s Events Committee said ‘I am thrilled that Ferryhill Town Council have been able to support so many local groups in their plans to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. All of the Town’s Community groups work tirelessly for the benefit of Ferryhill and it really is a pleasure to be able to donate funds to support them.”
