Sep 11 Future Fit: We need your support!
A message from Mike Pears:

Can you help? We have put in a large funding bid for an organisation I am involved with in Knowle West called ‘Future Fit’ (see below). We have been successful in getting through to the final round in our application – but in order to move forward need to demonstrate wide support. This is where we need your help. Would you go to the web site http://www.energyshare.com/future-fit-bristol and click the red button and register? This will take about 3 minutes.
 
We are in range of getting the highest number of votes – your support would help get a significant project off the ground which will lead directly to helping people into work, some of whom have no experience of employment in their family. Some of these are people who are being profiled in the media at the moment as ‘feral’ – it really is more complex than that!
 
Very many thanks in advance for your support!
Blessings
Mike
 
 
Some Details:
Supporters help local environmental project through to second round of funding
Help to keep Future Fit Bristol in with a chance!

The Future Fit Bristol project, which will support Knowle West residents and builders to make their homes more sustainable, is through to the next round for Energyshare funding. We couldn't have progressed this far without our online supporters and signatories and we’d like to thank everyone who has already supported the project.

However, in order to be in with a chance of securing the funding we need more like-minded supporters. Please support the group if you haven’t already and invite your friends to do the same. 'Likes' on Facebook aren't counted, so please visit http://www.energyshare.com/future-fit-bristol and click the red 'Support this Group' button.

Future Fit Bristol will:
• 'retrofit' local homes - adding new features to existing buildings to make them more environmentally friendly
• support builders to develop skills in renewable and green construction
• work with residents to encourage more sustainable living

Future Fit will make a difference to Knowle West, a South Bristol estate that ranks highly in statistics for poverty, poor health and educational under-achievement, but where, through the Carbon Makeover project, residents have already shown a commitment and determination to become more sustainable. Every supporter counts.

Thank you again for your support.
