Three years ago, in 2006, we started the CAP program. It was always our intention to review our projects after three years so today we’re looking back at the ROPE and CAKE projects.
The big picture: Over the 3 year period £24,000 was given from church budget (the single biggest line item in that budget). £16,674.22 came from other donations. Which gives us a total of £40,674.22. That’s a big number…
