Porthleven Environment Group Launches Fundraising Campaign for Local Beautification
Funds Raised Will Support Flower Trough Maintenance
The Porthleven Environment Group (PEG) has taken the initiative to seek financial assistance from the community in order to preserve the aesthetic appeal of their town. Citing a need for £70, the group is looking to cover the cost of plants and compost for the town’s entrance flower troughs located along Wellington Road. The call for these funds was initially placed on a popular social media platform, where PEG highlighted their financial struggles and their unwavering commitment to keep Porthleven beautiful—a tradition held for over five years.
The Community Responds Generously
In a display of remarkable community spirit and generosity, both residents and local businesses swiftly answered PEG’s call for financial support. Hundreds of pounds were donated within a mere few hours following the appeal. Our sources reveal that the money will be used to buy new equipment and plants, as well as support PEG’s ongoing efforts to improve the environment in their beloved town.
Crowdfunding Campaign Well on its Way
Steve Atkinson, a Porthleven resident, has set up a crowdfunding campaign with a target of £500 in a bid to further augment the funds needed by PEG. The campaign is off to a promising start, with half the target already achieved in the early stages of the initiatives.
How To Contribute
Our source has made it easy for those wishing to support PEG’s beautification efforts. Donations can be made either through the crowdfunding link or directly to the group via their social media page. It is encouraging to see such determination from PEG in their endeavours to maintain and enhance Porthleven’s charm while actively involving the community in the town’s preservation. The group’s initiative serves as an inspirational model for other small towns aspiring to take charge of their environmental concerns.
