This is an artists impression of the custom built, energy saving, Milford on Sea Village Community Centre we all want.

There is a very real possibility that we shall be awarded a coveted Lottery Grant of £500,000 towards the cost of a new Village Community Centre provided we can achieve some matching funding.

To qualify for the maximum grant we need to match fund £250,000 from other sources.

We are talking to Hampshire County Council, New Forest District Council and our Parish Council about raising the match funding. Can we afford to miss this fantastic opportunity for our new Community Centre to be largely funded from the Big Lottery?
