On Sunday 27th June, as England were going out of the World Cup, a successful fund raising garden party was being held in Wells in support of the HOMES for WELLS organisation.

 

The event took place at Bishop Ingle House, with the very generous offer to use the venue by the owners, Peter and Gilly Cook. Over 100 people attended the event, including Norman Lamb accompanied by his wife and mother.

 

The weather, food and organisation was outstanding.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Gilly and, in particular her very understanding husband, Peter for their continuous support.

 

They spent weeks preparing the garden, setting up gazebos, organising food and drink.Peter even found time to prepare a printed history of the house and garden.

 

The funds raised by HOMES for WELLS are used to help find suitable, affordable housing in the area for local people.

 

HOMES for WELLS are also just completing the purchase a property in Wells, a well positioned 2 bedroom flat with a good size garden.We will also soon be renting out a 3 bedroom flat in the town centre, and in October we will be renting out a 3 bedroom cottage in Wighton.

During the current financial climate, HOMES for WELLS are still positively looking for more properties to buy or let, and we are looking for opportunities to be partner in future developments. You can find out more about HOMES for WELLS by calling me on 07765503292.
