Nick Gibb MP

“In a village such as Felpham, the post office has become the centre of village and community life. There is huge support for the campaign’s aims in the village.“It is an important campaign to keep the post office as the heart of village activity. I wish the group every success.”

We met with Nick Gibb MP at The Fox recently (Friday 12th January); he promised us full support, congratulated us on the important work we are all doing and will provide a letter endorsing the project. He gave us various contacts and said we could use his name to promote our campaign. The meeting was later written up in The Bognor Observer. You can find more press coverage here.

We’re On Our Way!! Thank You!!

PLEASE help us reach £200,000. This sum is important! Once we reach this figure we will apply for government and trust grants. Some of these are match-funded ie £1 for every £1 we raise but some are even better. The Community Ownership Grant from central government could potentially raise up to £800,000 against our £200,000. Enough to purchase the property and carry out all the refurbishments needed!

You can see the total we have already raised  – all refundable in the event we don’t reach the final target.
