A Glenkens community group has been “blown away“ by the public response to a crowdfunder appeal for a regeneration project.Local Initiatives in New Galloway (LING) only launched the Refurbishment Appeal for New Galloway Town Hall at he end of January.But on Sunday the group reached its £5,000 target with six days to spare before the deadline.Now LING events organiser Neil Paterson is hoping for a late flurry of support – because each pledge is worth twice the cash.He said: “This is great news but we can still keep every penny we raise over the target - which will be doubled by match funding.
We have been blown away by the response to our crowdfunder.
