The very successful SALSA group are hoping to commemorate the 100-year anniversary of WW1 by putting on various and events and activities in November.  The activities planned so far are a play, tea dance, workshops for children with Bath symphonia and a Book of War Time Memories.  Central to the activities is the “There But Not There” statue, which will proudly sit in the library garden for everyone to enjoy and reflect.  St Austell Town Council kicked off the funding by granting £250 towards the project at their last Community Committee meeting.

The Crowdfunding platform will run from Monday 25^th June 2018 for 8 weeks with donors eligible for a reward depending on the level of funding donated.
