A Big Thank You!!!
A month has now passed since we held our bonfire and fireworks event in Langham to raise funds for our beautiful village and community.
We are incredibly pleased to announce that we made a profit of just under £5,000 which will all be put back into the village and used to make facilities better for all of us.
If anyone has any ideas how they would like to see this spent, please let us know.
The success of this event would not have been possible without ALL of our wonderful sponsors:
Our main financial contributors:
Langham Hall Estate, LJ Rose Accounting, Palmer and Partners and Colchester Mortgages, THANK YOU again for sponsoring our village event this year!!!

Finally, this event would not have been possible without all the volunteers, including the Boxted Runners and refugees staying at the Holiday Inn who gave up their precious time to help out with the organisation, set up and clear down of the marquees and other equipment needed as well as volunteering on the night to help on the gates, carpark and stalls. THANK YOU!
