The 'Move The Mountain' appeal
The Scargill Movement has a mountain to move. This is the debt we owe to
Lee
Abbey and others, who made interest-free loans to us totalling £1.05 million to
enable the purchase of Scargill House and its estate in 2009. The next
repayment is due by 31 March 2012, and this presents a massive challenge. But
the future of the Scargill Movement depends upon it.
Our strategy
We plan to move the mountain one spadeful at a time, and are asking supporters
and well-wishers if they will offer either substantial one-off gifts (from those
who have a JCB rather than a spade) or standing-order pledges over five years of
between £6 and £55 a month (depending on the size of your shovel). If every
Scargill supporter responds prayerfully and generously, we will be able to repay
the Lee Abbey loan. We will then begin raising funds to cover the developments
planned over the coming years. We will gradually reach the point where Scargill
earns its keep and doesn't need to rely on charitable giving for its day-to-day
running costs.
