The thorny question of raising funds for the project was discussed. To get the youths involved with the project they could gain public support by promoting it at the local monthly Market. They could highlight the scheme with drawings and perhaps getting donations at the same time. We must also try to identify other forms of grant funding in the public domain.

The youths collected £60 at the Lenham Wanderers Football Club’s Boot Fare and a £200 donation from the Lenham Neighbourhood Watch together with £250 for doing five litter picks at Swadelands School (which has yet to be completed), £500 promised from a resident at Atwater Court (as long as the youths help the volunteer group).

Tom Sams told the Meeting that Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council are looking at a Skate Light project. Research shows that it is the most robust and most liked by the youths scheme. However, it is quite expensive but has low maintenance. Perhaps the youths involved with the project could get onto the Website and further investigate the possibilities.
