Hello all - thanks Matthew for posting this! I'm involved in the Shirley Collins film project so I hope it's okay to jump in (as a Mudcat guest) to say that anything you're able to do to support it - whether that's pledging yourself, or helping us to spread the word in person or online - would be hugely appreciated.

We have until 22 July to raise at least £25k, otherwise we lose all the money pledged so far. We're at over £12k now, which is brilliant - but we still have a long way to go.

@bubblyrat, agreed, we are looking to give Dolly's work the credit it's due (and we have some special plans up our sleeves for that, as long as we can raise the money).

If you've got any questions, leave us a comment or a message on the Kickstarter page, or get in touch on social media (Facebook /Twitter)
