TODAY IS THE DAY! - £32,000 TO GO!
Today is the final day to make pledges before our bid needs to be placed. Again, we have felt so supported throughout this whole process. The way our H&D family have supported all the camps has been incredible.
Yesterday, a small team went down to visit the field again to pray and walk the ground, along with those at home praying also. ‘I would say H and D has a new home if all goes well. A truly exciting prospect.’
Please pray for wisdom and guidance as we make decisions on next steps and different ways to progress.
Please feel free to share widely so we can make sure everyone who knows and loves camp can hear this exciting news!

BIG NEWS! - £89,295 - ONE DAY TO GO!
https://www.hdcyc.org.uk/newsiteappeal
We wanted to share an update and a big thank you to all those who have pledged towards the new site fund. We have been encouraged by the generosity and commitment of so many. We are well on our way to reaching our target of £150,000.
So far, we have been blessed with an amazing figure of £89,295!
PRAYERS FOR THIS EVENING - We have a team going to visit the field again this evening to walk around together and pray over it. We would appreciate prayers for each member of our ’new site’ team and for the wisdom and knowledge that God goes before us.
This piece of land has come just onto the market and would check a lot of camps boxes. The closing date for bids is in a couple of days. The trustees and admin team have considered several potential sites in recent years, but this option does offer us huge potential and is perfect for our needs in many ways.
If you have any questions or hesitations, please get in touch with the trustees directly, who will be more than happy to help.

We are so excited to share the news that we have found a plot of land for sale that seems to check all the boxes. The trustees have considered several potential sites in recent years, but this option does offer us huge potential and is perfect for our needs in many ways.
The desired piece of land has just come on the market and bids close in a matter of days. This limited time scale has rushed us off our feet, but we are trusting God and are encouraged by the number of pledges already received.
It would be fabulous to celebrate our 80th Anniversary next year with a new permanent site and home.
We have raised £50,000 so far, but need to raise a total of £150,000 to secure the plot.
HOW CAN YOU HELP? -
1. To pledge to make money available to H&D in the form of a gift. This could be spread over a few years and can be gift aided. On this basis £30 a month would raise £1440 over 4 years, whilst £100 a month would raise almost £5,000!
2. To make a loan available to H&D, terms set by you in discussion with our treasurer.
3. To begin a monthly giving donation that will help in the ongoing costs of buying and developing land
To setup giving, please follow the link below to our pledge form. All gifts are appreciated and no amount is too small!
As we will not need to transfer funds until later in the year, pledges are greatly appreciated.
