@Selene SMP Thank you for your kind message. Please Vote :-)

@Selene SMP Sorry to hear that. I was looking at your online ideas here by clicking your name and to me looks like you have just written lots of different projects. Did you actually fill up an online form with all the details of one and sent to the address was given at the end of the form at the time? because just writing ideas here with different budgets is not consider an official application.

@Jay Smith Sorry the amount has popped up now it wasnt there before. What is this £5000 being spent on? Where are these workshops going to be? How many workshops? How long? How many places at each one?

@Jay Smith I would still like to know these answers. I'm not going to give my vote to anyone who can't or won't explain how my money will be spent.
