Banner Adverts on The Marple Website raise £1,000 for Skatepark
« Reply #1 on: April 11, 2014, 09:16:25 AM »
The Marple Website - "The First and Best Community web site for Marple in Cheshire" is delighted to make a donation of £1,000 to the Marple Skatepark fund from the banner advertising income on The Marple Website, the Marple Community Forum and the Virtual History Tour of Marple for 2013-14. This has been possible due to the excellent support of the local businesses who pay for low cost advertising on these sites.

The purpose of the banner adverts on the sites is to generate income to cover running costs. This has been quite successful in recent years and has allowed the surplus income to be donated to local causes. In 2011 £1,000 was donated to Friends of Marple Memorial Park for their Diamond Jubilee Project. In 2012 The Marple Website became the main sponsor of the Marple Christmas Cracker with a donation of £1,000 to Marple Business Forum. £500 was donated to the Skate Park Project in 2013 and this was matched by Forever Manchester, effectively doubling our our money.

The 2014 donation takes the web site's contribution towards the Skatepark Community Match Funding to £1,500 and takes the current total match-funding raised to £16,149 against the target of £20,000.
