I hope you all got to see it, if not you’ll find some photos below.

A special thank you to all those who worked so very hard at the make-up sessions, to Travis Perkins who kindly supplied the structure materials and lorry, also Synergy(Weymouth & Portland Housing),Weymouth & Portland Council and Weymouth Harbour side Rotary for funding the project.
