I REFER to the article Resort set to bid for share of £45m fund' (Echo, April 29).

Weymouth can wake up to a new, hoped for, promise from the Sea Change Fund scheme!

It is brilliant news that the scheme is designed to specifically fund theatres and harbours - surely our very own Pavilion is in line for this!

Very importantly, there is the deadline of June 30 for applying. So, even though this application may well involve a lot of hard work to assemble, good luck to the council - and get us to the church on time!
