The Forest Bee Needs Your Help
Donation protected
The Forest Bee is a popular non profit community magazine run by volunteers, helping local people find courses and services provided by small independent businesses throughout the Forest of Dean. For ten years, we have had a loyal following of contributors and readers who eagerly collect the magazines from pick-up points around the area.
The magazine has been largely funded by advertisements and listings from local services and course providers. Despite all this, in recent years, more and more people are looking online for services, and our ageing website does not meet this need. We are able to keep our heads above water financially to cover our running costs in producing the magazine, which is vital in reaching all in the community, and we must keep this going, but we do not have adequate funds to pay for a new website.
Coleford Town Council has been very supportive and given us a grant of £500, but in order to be able to continue, we still need £2,000.
Thank you to everyone for reading this. We really appreciate any donations received.
