PROJECT UPDATES

10th April 2008: Happy Birthday, Big Ben!
Today marks the 150th anniversary of the casting of the Great Bell at Whitechapel Bell Foundry and the official launch of our heritage project. Big Ben is the ultimate London story,"an East-Ender done good"! Hailing from Whitechapel, he (quite literally) rose to the highest place in Parliament, a position he has held for close to 150 years. Big Ben was recently voted London's favourite landmark, and we must agree!

14th March 2008: WOOHOO!
Today we received notification that our project has been funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund! Once the paperwork is in place, we can begin the project as planned!

18th December 2007: Fingers Crossed!
We submitted a 101-page grant application to the Heritage Lottery Fund "Your Heritage" grants programme. Now we must wait (a bit anxiously) for their decision.... Fingers crossed.
