Great news coming at Burslem Port

Reports have appeared in the press today regarding very significant developments at Burslem Port, not least the announcement of funding to undertake volunteer-led works on the site.

We will be publishing more details via our website next Monday, 19th November and hosting a public event on Saturday 24th November where people can find out more about the project and learn the ways in which they can become involved.

Thanks to everyone who got in touch regarding today's reports. We look forward to sharing the details with you at the event, details of which will also be published on Monday. We have been caught slightly on the hop with this story coming out a few days earlier than planned but all the lovely comments and support show that there is great support from the community for this exciting project, and we are extremely grateful to you all.
