Just to clarify the 2009 Centenary Project.

Next year is the 100 year anniversary of when the Peel family handed over the Coppice to the people of Accrington. We are going for a lottery grant to hold a celebratory event to mark this. The event will be the culmination of a three month programme of workshops, exhibitions and activities which will focus around the history and usage of the Coppice. It will also be a fitting celebration of the work that is being done.

The two groups should not be working seperately.

The Celebration group has absolutely nothing to do with any of the work that is being done up there at the moment. The only people working up there now are those involved in the REMADE scheme. Whether they are directly involved with REMADE or are part of HBC and therefore working alongside REMADE, I don't know, but surely Graham you would have the facts to hand about this as you're so involved.
