The new dates to vote for the Friends of Etching Hill Openview project are:

October 31st to November 13 th


Sunday 18 September 2016

Great news everyone. Our Tesco bid has been successful! 

 This means that every time you buy a plastic bag in Tescos 
between 26th September 2016 - 9th October 2016 
you will be able to ask for a token which you can put into the box to vote for our project. At the end of the period of voting the group with the greatest number of tokens gets the largest sum of money. We are guaranteed a sum of money but with the your votes we can increase this.
Look for the Friends of Etching Hill project title "Openview" as we will be working with the Trustees to open up the views from the hill, manage the trees and encourage greater biodiversity. This is an opportunity to make a significant difference to the hill.

We need your votes for the Friends of Etching Hill Openview project

Don't forget we have a quiz night on September 29th 7.30 pm at Etchinghill Church Hall. You are guaranteed to get some of the answers as there is something for everyone. Come alone and make some new friends or come with a team. We look forward to seeing you. £1 per person to enter all proceeds will go to the church on this occasion as they have supported our group.
