A donation of £100.00 was received by cheque today. The gentleman who sent us this money would like to remain anonymous.
I have sent the person an email giving all our thanks for this generous donation.
For the sake of keeping things open - this cheque was made out to my name. I will discuss, with the other founder members, how they wish to transfer/use this money.

I had the pleasure of meeting up with a very nice young gentleman at the Salford Local History library yesterday evening. He gave me an envelope with a donation stating "it's not much" and asking that the money is split between SWARM and the Billy Unsworth Project. Imagine my surprise when I opened the envelope to find £100.00. So £50.00 to us and £50.00 to the Billy Unsworth Project.
May I just say a public "thank you" to him for this very generous donation.
Thanks,
Garry
