The restoration of Bell’s Gristmill in Utopia, Essa, is one of the finalists in the Aviva Community Fund, where success depends on the number of votes from the public. With 10 days to go, the project is one of the leaders in its category.
But it’s still about 400 daily votes behind the first-place entry.
“We have already defied the odds,” says Susan Antler, one of those who have worked tirelessly to save the Gristmill. “We need to catch up and surge ahead. Right now, we are in fourth place. Yesterday at one point, we were second. So there is a lot of jockeying going on. But so far, we have yet to take the lead. And we need to do this before the gap is too great.”
She urges everyone to register and vote, daily. And also to get your friends, work colleagues and family and all points in between to register and vote as well.
